Glucose can acutely reduce mitochondrial glutathione redox state in rat islets. However, whether glucose-stimulated mitochondrial glutathione redox state relates to glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) remains unknown. We used genetically encoded redox-sensitive GFPs to target the mitochondria to monitor glutathione redox changes during GSIS in rat pancreatic β-cells. The results showed that mitochondrial glutathione was more reduced during GSIS, whereas inhibition of this glutathione reduction impaired insulin secretion. In isolated rat pancreatic islets glutathione reduction in mitochondria and the first phase of GSIS were concurrence at the early stage of glucose-stimulation. Our results suggest that the glucose-induced glutathione reduction in mitochondria is primarily required for the first phase of GSIS.
葡萄糖可急性降低大鼠胰岛中线粒体谷胱甘肽的氧化还原状态。然而,葡萄糖刺激的线粒体谷胱甘肽氧化还原状态是否与葡萄糖刺激的胰岛素分泌(GSIS)相关仍不清楚。我们使用基因编码的对氧化还原敏感的绿色荧光蛋白靶向线粒体,以监测大鼠胰腺β细胞在GSIS过程中的谷胱甘肽氧化还原变化。结果表明,在GSIS过程中线粒体谷胱甘肽的还原程度更高,而抑制这种谷胱甘肽还原会损害胰岛素分泌。在分离的大鼠胰腺胰岛中,线粒体谷胱甘肽的还原与GSIS的第一阶段在葡萄糖刺激早期同时发生。我们的结果表明,线粒体中葡萄糖诱导的谷胱甘肽还原是GSIS第一阶段的主要必要条件。
