Abstract
Phosphoinositide 3-kinase γ (PI3Kγ) expressed in immune cells is linked to neuroinflammation in several neurological diseases. However, the expression and role of PI3Kγ in preclinical traumatic brain injury (TBI) have not been investigated. In WT mice, we found that TBI induced rapid and extensive expression of PI3Kγ in neurons within the perilesional cortex and the ipsilateral hippocampal subfields (CA1, CA3), which peaked between 1 and 3 days and declined significantly 7 days after TBI. Intriguingly, the induction of neuronal PI3Kγ in these subregions of the brain spatiotemporally coincided with both the TBI-induced activation of the neuronal ER stress pathway (p-eIF2α, ATF4, and CHOP) and neuronal cell death (marked by TUNEL-positive neurons) 3 days after TBI. Further, we show that the absence of PI3Kγ in knockout mice profoundly reduced the TBI-induced activation of the ER stress pathway and neuronal cell death. White matter disruption is a better predictor of long-term clinical outcomes than focal lesion size. We show that PI3Kγ deficiency not only reduced brain tissue loss but also alleviated white matter injury (determined by axonal injury and demyelination) up to 28 days after TBI. Importantly, PI3Kγ-knockout mice exhibited greater functional recovery including forepaw use, sensorimotor balance and coordination, and spatial learning and memory up to 28 days after TBI. These results unveil a previously unappreciated role for neuronal PI3Kγ in the regulation of ER stress associated with neuronal cell death, white matter damage, and long-term functional impairment after TBI.

Abstract
The pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP)/ glucagon superfamily includes nine hormones in humans that are related by structure, distribution (especially the brain and gut), function (often by activation of cAMP), and receptors (a subset of seven-transmembrane receptors). The nine hormones include glucagon, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), GLP-2, glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP), GH-releasing hormone (GRF), peptide histidine-methionine (PHM), PACAP, secretin, and vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP). The origin of the ancestral superfamily members is at least as old as the invertebrates; the most ancient and tightly conserved members are PACAP and glucagon. Evidence to date suggests the superfamily began with a gene or exon duplication and then continued to diverge with some gene duplications in vertebrates. The function of PACAP is considered in detail because it is newly (1989) discovered; it is tightly conserved (96% over 700 million years); and it is probably the ancestral molecule. The diverse functions of PACAP include regulation of proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis in some cell populations. In addition, PACAP regulates metabolism and the cardiovascular, endocrine, and immune systems, although the physiological event(s) that coordinates PACAP responses remains to be identified.

Abstract
It was reported two decades ago that insulin was not detectable in the glucose-stimulated state in Saimiri sciurea, the New World squirrel monkey, by a radioimmunoassay system developed with guinea pig anti-pork insulin antibody and labeled pork insulin. With the same system, reasonable levels were observed in rhesus monkeys and chimpanzees. This suggested that New World monkeys, like the New World hystricomorph rodents such as the guinea pig and the coypu, might have insulins whose sequences differ markedly from those of Old World mammals. In this report we describe the purification and amino acid sequences of squirrel monkey insulin and glucagon. We demonstrate that the substitutions at B29, B27, A2, A4, and A17 of squirrel monkey insulin are identical with those previously found in another New World primate, the owl monkey (Aotus trivirgatus). The immunologic cross-reactivity of this insulin in our immunoassay system is only a few percent of that of human insulin. Squirrel monkey glucagon is identical with the usual glucagon found in Old World mammals, which predicts that the glucagons of other New World monkeys would not differ from the usual Old World mammalian glucagon. It appears that the peptides of the New World monkeys have diverged less from those of the Old World mammals than have those of the New World hystricomorph rodents. The striking improvements in peptide purification and sequencing have the potential for adding new information concerning the evolutionary divergence of species.

Abstract
Previous studies have shown that pig intestine contains a 69 amino acid glucagon (glicentin) as well as a 37 amino acid glucagon (oxyntomodulin). In pig pancreas the 29 amino acid glucagon predominates. Since glucagon is thought to be expressed from a single gene in mammals, these differences in molecular forms indicate differential posttranslational processing of the glucagon precursor by different tissues. In the current study glucagon immunoreactivity (IR) was separately purified from dog pancreas, stomach mucosa and ileum mucosa. Purification and sequence analysis of the different tissue glucagons show that dog pancreas and stomach mucosa contain glucagon-29 while ileum mucosa contains glucagon-37 and glucagon-69. The latter is the major form present with glucagon-37 accounting for only 10-20% of the total ileum glucagon content. The N-terminal 32 amino acid portion of dog glucagon-69 differs at 6 sites from pig glucagon-69: RSLQDTEEKSRSFSAPQTEPLNDLDQMNEDKR... The C-terminal glucagon-37 is identical to pig oxyntomodulin.

Abstract
The ontogeny of insulin, glucagon, PP and somatostatin in the mammalian fetal pancreas has been examined in recent years largely by immunocytochemistry and in some instances by radioimmunoassay. Complete ontogenic data are available only for the rat, human, pig and sheep. Figure 3 compares the time of appearance of the endocrine cell-types within the fetal pancreas when the periods of gestation of the four species are converted to a uniform scale. The striking ontogenic difference in the rat probably reflects the immaturity of the rodent fetus at birth compared with the human, pig and sheep. In the fetal pancreas, differences in cell number of glucagon and PP cells in the dorsal and ventral lobes become apparent from an early gestational period. Factors responsible for the functional and structural maturation of the fetal pancreatic endocrine cells and the processes involved in pancreatic organogenesis are poorly understood. Studies in these areas would have clinical implications since it may be possible in the future to employ agents for selective replication of fetal beta-cells for transplantation in patients with Type I diabetes, bearing in mind that such cells must have the capacity to respond to normal stimuli and repressors when transplanted. The presence of the other islet cell-types may be obligatory for these appropriate responses. This would require a more complete knowledge of those factors which produce the normal selectivity of the four hormonal cell-types.

Abstract
The pancreatic islets of the holocephalan fishes contain, in addition to A-, B- and D-cells, X-cells, which are immunoreactive towards antisera directed against the N-terminal region of glucagon but not towards antisera directed against the C-terminal region. A 36-amino-acid-residue peptide was isolated from the pancreas of a holocephalan fish, the Pacific ratfish (Hydrolagus colliei), that shows homology (69%) to mammalian glucagon in its N-terminal region and is reactive towards an N-terminally directed antiserum. Reactivity towards C-terminally directed antisera is prevented by the presence of a 7-residue C-terminal extension to the glucagon sequence that shows limited homology to the C-terminal region of glucagon-37 (oxyntomodulin). It is proposed that this peptide represents a major storage product of the islet X-cell.

Abstract
We report the use of poly- and monoclonal antibodies to study the immunohistochemical distribution of glucagon-like peptide-1 immunoreactivity (GLP-1-IR) in various tissues. The polyclonal antibodies against GLP-1 reacted with pancreatic A cells, enteroglucagon (L) cells in the gut, and some neurons in the central nervous system of all species tested. In pancreas and gut the monoclonal antibodies against GLP-1 exhibited a similar, but species specific distribution, relative to the polyclonal antibodies. The colocalization of GLP-1 and glucagon immunoreactivity in pancreatic, intestinal, and nervous tissues is in agreement with previously reported findings that both peptides are part of a single precursor molecule (preproglucagon).

Abstract
A cDNA clone encoding guinea pig preproglucagon has been isolated from a pancreatic cDNA library. The predicted amino acid sequence of proglucagon is highly conserved in all regions, in comparison to other mammals, except for the C-terminal portion of the 29-residue glucagon region, in which 5 amino acid substitutions have occurred. These changes may serve to offset the reduced receptor-binding potency of the highly mutated insulin in this New World species.
