Activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome by islet amyloid polypeptide provides a mechanism for enhanced IL-1β in type 2 diabetes
Open accessAbstract
Interleukin 1β (IL-1β) is an important inflammatory mediator of type 2 diabetes. Here we show that oligomers of islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP), a protein that forms amyloid deposits in the pancreas during type 2 diabetes, triggered the NLRP3 inflammasome and generated mature IL-1β. One therapy for type 2 diabetes, glyburide, suppressed IAPP-mediated IL-1β production in vitro. Processing of IL-1β initiated by IAPP first required priming, a process that involved glucose metabolism and was facilitated by minimally oxidized low-density lipoprotein. Finally, mice transgenic for human IAPP had more IL-1β in pancreatic islets, which localized together with amyloid and macrophages. Our findings identify previously unknown mechanisms in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes and treatment of pathology caused by IAPP.

“A potential role for NLRP3 in promoting elevated levels of IL-1β in type 2 diabetes was also implied by the observation of NLRP3-dependent IL-1β secretion by mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages and dendritic cells in response to islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP), which is deposited in the pancreas and associated with loss of β-cell function in type 2 diabetes61.”

“Interestingly, the anti-diabetic drug glyburide (Glibenclamide; Roche/Sanofi-Aventis) has been shown to block glucose-mediated secretion of IL-1β by mouse pancreatic islets62, as well as IL-1β production by macrophages in response to IAPP61, and NLRP3-deficient mice were more glucose tolerant than wild-type mice62.”

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.
