G6PC2: A Negative Regulator of Basal Glucose-Stimulated Insulin Secretion

Abstract: Elevated fasting blood glucose (FBG) is associated with increased risk for the development of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular-associated mortality. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have linked polymorphisms in G6PC2 with variations in FBG and body fat, although not insulin sensitivity or glucose tolerance. G6PC2 encodes an islet-specific, endoplasmic reticulum–resident glucose-6-phosphatase catalytic subunit. A combination of in situ perfused pancreas, in vitro isolated islet, and in vivo analyses wer… Show more

“…GSE72719) (Ingenuity Pathway Analysis presented in Supplementary Table 4). Interestingly, G6pc2, one of the most highly expressed genes in β-cells (9), was strongly repressed in islets from SRI-tg10 mice. Subsequent qRT-PCR analysis in isolated islets from SRI-tg10, SRI-tg1, and Sri −/− mice confirmed the inverse relationship between Sri and G6pc2 expression levels (Fig.…”

“…In contrast, key metabolic genes that are either considered 'disallowed' or contribute to their regulation (Dhawan et al, 2015;MartinezSanchez et al, 2016;Piccand et al, 2014;Pullen and Rutter, 2013) were enriched in immature beta cells ( Figure 3E). Islets were also co-stained for insulin, Ucn3, and 8 G6pc2, which hydrolyzes glucose-6-phosphate (Pound et al, 2013) or the oxidoreductase Ero1lb, which is required for disulfide bond formation in pro-insulin (Zito et al, 2010). Both markers co-labeled Ucn3-positive mature beta cells, and the majority of Ucn3 negative beta cells did not express G6pc2 or Ero1lb ( Figure 3F-I).…”

“…This variant has in previous studies been found to be associated with elevated fasting glucose [15] and it likely regulates the expression of G6PC2 encoding the catalytic subunit of glucose-6-phosphatase, a regulator of glycolytic flux in the beta cell. The major allele is proposed to cause a rightward shift of the dose-response curve for the glucosestimulated insulin secretion [16], which explains the association with HOMA-B and insulinogenic index in opposite directions.…”
