Disruption of the clock components CLOCK and BMAL1 leads to hypoinsulinaemia and diabetes
Open accessAbstract
The molecular clock maintains energy constancy by producing circadian oscillations of rate-limiting enzymes involved in tissue metabolism across the day and night. During periods of feeding, pancreatic islets secrete insulin to maintain glucose homeostasis, and although rhythmic control of insulin release is recognized to be dysregulated in humans with diabetes, it is not known how the circadian clock may affect this process. Here we show that pancreatic islets possess self-sustained circadian gene and protein oscillations of the transcription factors CLOCK and BMAL1. The phase of oscillation of islet genes involved in growth, glucose metabolism and insulin signalling is delayed in circadian mutant mice, and both Clock and Bmal1 (also called Arntl) mutants show impaired glucose tolerance, reduced insulin secretion and defects in size and proliferation of pancreatic islets that worsen with age. Clock disruption leads to transcriptome-wide alterations in the expression of islet genes involved in growth, survival and synaptic vesicle assembly. Notably, conditional ablation of the pancreatic clock causes diabetes mellitus due to defective beta-cell function at the very latest stage of stimulus-secretion coupling. These results demonstrate a role for the beta-cell clock in coordinating insulin secretion with the sleep-wake cycle, and reveal that ablation of the pancreatic clock can trigger the onset of diabetes mellitus.

“For example, the hepatic clock regulates fasting glycemic control and glucose clearance (8), the pancreatic clock regulates insulin secretion and its response to glucose (9-11), the adipose clock regulates lipid storage and mobilization (12,13), and the skeletal muscle clock regulates glucose uptake and metabolism (14).”

In the citing paper
“Examination of isolated pancreatic islets, containing the insulin-secreting b cells, from Clock mutant mice, as well as from mice carrying a null mutation of Bmal1, revealed profound defects in insulin secretion, both at basal levels and in response to glucose stimulation, compared with wild-type mice (9).”

In the citing paper
“The SCN can also influence metabolic-related factors (e.g., cortisol) via hormonal pathways (Buijs et al., 1993, 1999) and peripheral clocks per se can influence metabolism (Marcheva et al., 2010).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
