Selective Inhibition of Eukaryotic Translation Initiation Factor 2α Dephosphorylation Potentiates Fatty Acid-induced Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress and Causes Pancreatic β-Cell Dysfunction and Apoptosis

Abstract: Free fatty acids cause pancreatic ␤-cell apoptosis and may contribute to ␤-cell loss in type 2 diabetes via the induction of endoplasmic reticulum stress. Reductions in eukaryotic translation initiation factor (eIF) 2␣ phosphorylation trigger ␤-cell failure and diabetes. Salubrinal selectively inhibits eIF2␣ dephosphorylation, protects other cells against endoplasmic reticulum stress-mediated apoptosis, and has been proposed as a ␤-cell protector. Unexpectedly, salubrinal induced apoptosis in primary ␤-cells, … Show more

“…However, due to the deleterious effects of prolonged increased XBP1s level, this mechanism has to be closely regulated in beta cells, resulting in a limited XPB1 splicing as shown by previous studies [2,12] and the present data. These observations, together with other studies showing detrimental effects of prolonged eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 alpha (eIF2α) or ATF6α activation in beta cells [24,49], suggest that tight control of ER homeostasis is crucial to maintain beta cell function and survival.…”

“…Although this strategy might be beneficial for treating cardiac hyper trophy in mice 198 , different cell types were found to respond differently to salubrinal. In pancreatic β cells, salubrinal has proapoptotic effects 199 , whereas anti apoptotic and cardioprotective effects were found in the heart 20,200 .…”

“…The mechanisms causing the loss of beta cell function and mass in type 2 diabetes are still debated [8][9][10]. It has been recently proposed that alterations of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) function in the beta cell contribute to cell dysfunction and death [10][11][12][13][14][15][16]. The ER is central to several important cellular functions, including post-translational modifications, folding and assembly of newly synthesised secretory proteins, and calcium storage [14][15][16].…”

“…Because beta cells need to synthesise and secrete large quantities of insulin they have a well developed ER and a remarkable production of proteins involved in ER function [14][15][16]. When ER function is impaired, due for example to accumulation of mutant folding-incompetent proteins, calcium depletion, over-production of proteins, or viral infection, ER stress develops [10,11,14,15]. Similarly, a mutation in insulin that causes its mal-folding leads to ER stress, beta cell death and diabetes in the Akita mouse [17].…”
