Regulatable production of insulin from primary-cultured hepatocytes: Insulin production is up-regulated by glucagon and cAMP and down-regulated by insulin
Abstract
To utilize hepatocytes for insulin-producing surrogate cells, we devised a regulatory secretion system by placing proinsulin DNA under the regulatable promoter for phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK). The expression of PEPCK is down-regulated by insulin, and up-regulated by cAMP and glucagon. To express insulin in hepatocytes, we constructed an adenoviral insulin expression system. After infection, the hepatocytes secreted immunoreactive insulin (IRI) at an increasing rate. IRI secretion increased over four-fold upon stimulation with 300 microM cAMP and 500 microM of the cAMP-dependent phosphodiesterase inhibitor 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (IBMX). This increase was also observed with glucagon and IBMX. Production was augmented two-fold by the addition of wortmannin, phosphatidylinositol (PI)-3-kinase inhibitor, suggesting that inhibitory insulin signaling to the PEPCK promoter may be mediated through PI-3-kinase. Addition of exogenous insulin to the culture decreased insulin mRNA expression remarkably on Northern blot. Thus, by using a PEPCK promoter for insulin expression, we were able to up-regulate insulin production from hepatocytes with cAMP and glucagon, and down-regulate with insulin itself.

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.
