Abstract
Mice with deletion of insulin receptor substrate (IRS)-1 (IRS-1 knockout [KO] mice) show mild insulin resistance and defective
glucose-stimulated insulin secretion and reduced insulin synthesis. To further define the role of IRS-1 in islet function,
we examined the insulin secretory defect in the knockouts using freshly isolated islets and primary β-cells. IRS-1 KO β-cells
exhibited a significantly shorter increase in intracellular free Ca 2+ concentration ([Ca 2+ ] i ) than controls when briefly stimulated with glucose or glyceraldehyde and when l -arginine was used to potentiate the stimulatory effect of glucose. These changes were paralleled by a lower number of exocytotic
events in the KO β-cells in response to the same secretagogues, indicating reduced insulin secretion. Furthermore, the normal
oscillations in intracellular Ca 2+ and O 2 consumption after glucose stimulation were dampened in freshly isolated KO islets. Semiquantitative RT-PCR showed a dramatically
reduced islet expression of sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca 2+ -ATPase (SERCA)-2b and -3 in the mutants. These data provide evidence that IRS-1 modulation of insulin secretion is associated
with Ca 2+ signaling and expression of SERCA-2b and -3 genes in pancreatic islets and provides a direct link between insulin resistance
and defective insulin secretion.
