Deletion of Cdkn1b ameliorates hyperglycemia by maintaining compensatory hyperinsulinemia in diabetic mice

Abstract: The protein p27(Kip1) regulates cell cycle progression in mammals by inhibiting the activity of cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs). Here we show that p27(Kip1) progressively accumulates in the nucleus of pancreatic beta cells in mice that lack either insulin receptor substrate 2 (Irs2(-/-)) or the long form of the leptin receptor (Lepr(-/-) or db/db). Deletion of the gene encoding p27(Kip1) (Cdkn1b) ameliorated hyperglycemia in these animal models of type 2 diabetes mellitus by increasing islet mass and maintaini… Show more

“…In vitro studies suggest that hepatic GH resistance may develop in response to chronic hyperinsulinaemia [17]. The result of these changes may be a decrease in circulating IGF1 and IGF1 action, which may by itself be a mechanism for decreased beta cell survival in long-term type 2 diabetes mellitus [18,19]. Free serum IGF1 levels (which depend on levels of the significant IGF binding proteins) were not measured in our study.…”

“…In contrast, global deletion of p27 kip1 enhances beta cell proliferation, as also observed in genetic mouse models of insulin resistance (e.g. IRS2 KO, db/db) [59]. Beta cell hyperplasia is also observed in humans with a focal loss of heterozygosity of p57 kip2 , who suffer from hyperinsulinism of infancy [60].…”

“…This suggests that mature beta cells are sensitive to perturbations in cell cycle control, and this is probably due to differential involvement of cell cycle regulators compared with most other cell types as exemplified by models lacking CDK6 [56] and/or redundant expression of cyclin D2 [57,58]. Furthermore, overexpression of the inhibitor p27 kip1 [59] in beta cells impairs proliferation, resulting in reduced beta cell mass. In contrast, global deletion of p27 kip1 enhances beta cell proliferation, as also observed in genetic mouse models of insulin resistance (e.g.…”

“…Also, several studies using animal models of diabetes showed the importance of downregulation or loss of p27 in b-cells for accelerating replication of b-cells and thereby expansion of b-cell mass for correcting diabetes. [36][37][38] We have found robust interaction of p27 with GSK-3 in human islets and rodent b-cells (Fig. 2).…”
