Fatty Acid Signaling in the β-Cell and Insulin Secretion

Abstract: Fatty acids (FAs) and other lipid molecules are important for many cellular functions, including vesicle exocytosis. For the pancreatic ␤-cell, while the presence of some FAs is essential for glucose-stimulated insulin secretion, FAs have enormous capacity to amplify glucose-stimulated insulin secretion, which is particularly operative in situations of ␤-cell compensation for insulin resistance. In this review, we propose that FAs do this via three interdependent processes, which we have assigned to a "trident… Show more

“…After fat ingestion, insulin levels were increased, with a peak during the first 30 -60 min. This was a larger increase in insulin than in previous studies (15,19) and would perhaps be explained by lipids, which both directly and indirectly stimulate insulin secretion (28,32). However, there was no increase in circulating FFA after fat ingestion, and triglyceride levels increased after 60 min, which was a later time point than the rapid insulin release.…”

“…Thus, it was of interest to determine whether defects in islet lipid metabolism, short of causing steatosis, could be involved in beta cell failure in ZF-Px rats. Interestingly, 60% Px in ZL and ZF rats was associated with an increase in lipolysis, suggesting that increased GL/FA cycling may be a process involved not only in the compensatory response to obesityassociated insulin resistance [39], but also in beta cell Fig. 8 Model illustrating the natural history of type 2 diabetes in the ZF-Px rat model.…”

“…The beta cell mass at 3 weeks is almost normalised, consistent with the compensation phase being associated with enhanced beta cell growth and neogenesis. Furthermore, accelerated GL/FA cycling may be involved in the compensation [39] as well as allowing fuel excess detoxification and lipoadaptation [42,43]. Circulating glucose, triacylglycerol (TAG) and NEFA levels rise after 1 week post-Px, such that beta cells are in a glucolipotoxic environment.…”

“…Glucose oxidation is then favored and FAs are excluded from the mitochondrion, rendering glucose the main fuel in ␤-cell metabolism. The resulting increase in the cytosolic long chain acyl-CoA pool has been implicated as an amplifying process in GSIS (15). Conversely, acetyl-CoA, derived from FA oxidation, inhibits pyruvate dehydrogenase, and citrate inhibits phosphofructokinase.…”
