Galanin mRNA and peptide are not detectable in normal islets. We studied the effect of galanin antagonists on insulin secretion in the rat beta cell line, RIN5AH, and in perifused rat islets. In RIN cell membranes galanin and its antagonists showed high affinity for 125I-galanin binding sites [Kd: (galanin) 0.03+/-0.01; Ki for galanin antagonists: (C7) 0.12+/- 0.02, (M35) 0.21+/-0.04, and (M40) 0.22+/-0.03 nM, mean+/- SEM, n = 4]. Galanin (1 microM) inhibited glucose-induced insulin release in islets (control 21.2+/-1.5 vs. galanin 4.5+/-0.2 fmol/islet per min, P < 0.001, n = 6) and RIN5AH cells (control 0.26+/-0.01 vs. galanin 0.15+/-0.02 pmol/10(6) cells per h, P < 0.001, n = 9). In RIN5AH cells, all antagonists blocked the inhibitory effects of galanin and stimulated insulin release in the absence of galanin. C7 and M40 (1 microM) alone significantly stimulated glucose-induced insulin secretion. Purified porcine galanin antibody (GAb) enhanced glucose-induced insulin release from islets (control 100+/- 16.3% vs. GAb 806.1+/-10.4%, P < 0.001, n = 6), and RIN5AH cells (control 100+/-9.6% vs. GAb 149+/-6.8%, P < 0. 01, n = 6). Western blotting of dexamethasone-treated islet extracts using GAb showed a specific band of similar molecular weight to porcine galanin not detected using a rat specific galanin antibody. One possible explanation for these results is the presence of an endogenous galanin-like peptide.
在正常胰岛中检测不到甘丙肽信使核糖核酸和肽。我们研究了甘丙肽拮抗剂对大鼠β细胞系RIN5AH和灌流大鼠胰岛胰岛素分泌的影响。在RIN细胞膜中,甘丙肽及其拮抗剂对125I-甘丙肽结合位点显示出高亲和力[解离常数:(甘丙肽)0.03±0.01;甘丙肽拮抗剂的抑制常数:(C7)0.12±0.02,(M35)0.21±0.04,以及(M40)0.22±0.03纳摩尔,均值±标准误,n = 4]。甘丙肽(1微摩尔)抑制胰岛中葡萄糖诱导的胰岛素释放(对照组21.2±1.5对甘丙肽组4.5±0.2飞摩尔/胰岛每分钟,P < 0.001,n = 6)以及RIN5AH细胞中葡萄糖诱导的胰岛素释放(对照组0.26±0.01对甘丙肽组0.15±0.02皮摩尔/10⁶细胞每小时,P < 0.001,n = 9)。在RIN5AH细胞中,所有拮抗剂均阻断了甘丙肽的抑制作用,并在无甘丙肽时刺激胰岛素释放。单独使用C7和M40(1微摩尔)可显著刺激葡萄糖诱导的胰岛素分泌。纯化的猪甘丙肽抗体(GAb)增强了胰岛中葡萄糖诱导的胰岛素释放(对照组100±16.3%对GAb组806.1±10.4%,P < 0.001,n = 6)以及RIN5AH细胞中葡萄糖诱导的胰岛素释放(对照组100±9.6%对GAb组149±6.8%,P < 0.01,n = 6)。使用GAb对经地塞米松处理的胰岛提取物进行蛋白质印迹分析显示,存在一条与猪甘丙肽分子量相似的特异性条带,而使用大鼠特异性甘丙肽抗体则未检测到该条带。这些结果的一种可能解释是存在内源性甘丙肽样肽。
