Adaptation to chronic ER stress enforces pancreatic β-cell plasticity
Open accessPublished version of a preprint
Abstract
Pancreatic β-cells are prone to endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress due to their role in insulin secretion. They require sustainable and efficient adaptive stress responses to cope with this stress. Whether episodes of chronic stress directly compromise β-cell identity is unknown. We show here under reversible, chronic stress conditions β-cells undergo transcriptional and translational reprogramming associated with impaired expression of regulators of β-cell function and identity. Upon recovery from stress, β-cells regain their identity and function, indicating a high degree of adaptive plasticity. Remarkably, while β-cells show resilience to episodic ER stress, when episodes exceed a threshold, β-cell identity is gradually lost. Single cell RNA-sequencing analysis of islets from type 1 diabetes patients indicates severe deregulation of the chronic stress-adaptation program and reveals novel biomarkers of diabetes progression. Our results suggest β-cell adaptive exhaustion contributes to diabetes pathogenesis.

Inflammatory cytokines, hypoxia, and hyperglycemia can all induce an ER stress response in β cells that leads to cell dysfunction and apoptosis.
“Inflammatory cytokines, hypoxia, and hyperglycemia can all induce an ER stress response in β cells that leads to cell dysfunction and apoptosis.”
From Developments in stem cell-derived islet replacement therapy for treating type 1 diabetes (2023) · cites this paper as [128]
The Introduction says inflammation can elicit severe ER stress in β-cells and that chronic, unresolved stress can produce a maladaptive response. The Discussion also identifies cytokines as a possible source of ER stress, but says the study did not mimic hyperglycemia or cytokine action; our copy does not identify hypoxia as a trigger or show that each named trigger leads to both dysfunction and apoptosis.

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.
