Early autoantibody responses in prediabetes are IgG1 dominated and suggest antigen-specific regulation. (1/617)
The islet autoimmunity of preclinical type 1 diabetes remains poorly characterized in humans. In this paper, the IgG subclass response to the islet autoantigens insulin, glutamic acid decarboxylase, and IA-2 was studied sequentially from birth to diabetes onset or current follow-up in 26 autoantibody positive offspring of parents with diabetes. Islet autoantibody appearance was characterized by an early IgG1 peak response to one or more Ags, most commonly to insulin, at a median age of 2.2 yr (interquartile range, 2-2.9 yr). In five offspring, an acute fulminant beta-cell destruction and diabetes onset occurred during this initial Ab response. In the remainder, early Ab levels declined markedly, and Ab peaks against other beta cell Ags arose sequentially over several years suggesting regulation and spreading of autoimmunity. Second peak Ab responses to the same Ag were observed in only two offspring, both developing diabetes at this time. Two others developed diabetes with declining Ab levels. Abs of IgG1 subclass dominated against each Ag, and other subclasses, were usually only detected during peak IgG1 responses. The IgG4 response to insulin was exceptional, being dominant over IgG1 in four offspring and in five others appeared and/or persisted after IgG1 levels declined. These Th2-associated IgG4 responses were not correlated with protection from diabetes. The presence of IgG1-restricted responses to DA2 were associated with diabetes development. These findings suggest that type 1 diabetes has an early acute destructive phase of beta cell autoimmunity, which may be regulated and which spreads chronically until diabetes onset. (+info)Exposure of human islets to cytokines can result in disproportionately elevated proinsulin release. (2/617)
Infiltration of immunocytes into pancreatic islets precedes loss of beta cells in type 1 diabetes. It is conceivable that local release of cytokines affects the function of beta cells before their apoptosis. This study examines whether the elevated proinsulin levels that have been described in prediabetes can result from exposure of beta cells to cytokines. Human beta-cell preparations were cultured for 48 or 72 hours with or without IL-1beta, TNF-alpha, or IFN-gamma, alone or in combination. None of these conditions were cytotoxic, nor did they reduce insulin biosynthetic activity. Single cytokines did not alter medium or cellular content in insulin or proinsulin. Cytokine combinations, in particular IL-1beta plus IFN-gamma, disproportionately elevated medium proinsulin levels. This effect expresses an altered functional state of the beta cells characterized by preserved proinsulin synthesis, a slower hormone conversion, and an increased ratio of cellular proinsulin over insulin content. The delay in proinsulin conversion can be attributed to lower expression of PC1 and PC2 convertases. It is concluded that disproportionately elevated proinsulin levels in pre-type 1 diabetic patients might result from exposure of their beta cells to cytokines released from infiltrating immunocytes. This hormonal alteration expresses an altered functional state of the beta cells that can occur independently of beta-cell death. (+info)IL-18 inhibits diabetes development in nonobese diabetic mice by counterregulation of Th1-dependent destructive insulitis. (3/617)
The development of type 1 diabetes in animal models is T cell and macrophage dependent. Islet inflammation begins as peripheral benign Th2 type insulitis and progresses to destructive Th1 type insulitis, which is driven by the innate immune system via secretion of IL-12 and IL-18. We now report that daily application of IL-18 to diabetes-prone female nonobese diabetic mice, starting at 10 wk of age, suppresses diabetes development (p < 0.001, 65% in sham-treated animals vs 33% in IL-18-treated animals by 140 days of age). In IL-18-treated animals, we detected significantly lower intraislet infiltration (p < 0.05) and concomitantly an impaired progression from Th2 insulitis to Th1-dependent insulitis, as evidenced from IFN-gamma and IL-10 mRNA levels in tissue. The deficient progression was probably due to lesser mRNA expression of the Th1 driving cytokines IL-12 and IL-18 by the innate immune system (p < 0.05). Furthermore, the mRNA expression of inducible NO synthase, a marker of destructive insulitis, was also not up-regulated in the IL-18-treated group. IL-18 did not exert its effect at the levels of islet cells. Cultivation of islets with IL-18 affected NO production or mitochondrial activity and did not protect from the toxicity mediated by IL-1beta, TNF-alpha, and IFN-gamma. In conclusion, we show for the first time that administration of IL-18, a mediator of the innate immune system, suppresses autoimmune diabetes in nonobese diabetic mice by targeting the Th1/Th2 balance of inflammatory immune reactivity in the pancreas. (+info)Isolation of self antigen-reactive cells from inflamed islets of nonobese diabetic mice using CD4high expression as a marker. (4/617)
The low precursor frequency of Ag-reactive CD4+ T cells has been a barrier to the study of CD4+ T cell responses to conventional Ags as well as CD4+ T cell responses to autoantigens recognized during the course of an autoimmune disease. We have recently reported that all "conventional Ag" reactive CD4+ T cells are contained within the subpopulation expressing high levels of the CD4 molecule, termed CD4high. We have identified a CD4high population in the islets of Langerhans of prediabetic nonobese diabetic (NOD) mice that is extremely potent in transferring disease. As few as 500 CD4high islet-infiltrating CD4+ T cells transferred insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus to CD8 reconstituted NOD-SCID mice within 30 days of transfer. In contrast, CD4high T cells isolated from either NOD spleen or salivary glands did not transfer insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus into similar CD8-reconstituted NOD-SCID recipients. These data indicate that the precursor frequency of NOD islet-reactive, pathogenic CD4+ T cells is much higher in the prediabetic NOD pancreas than in these other organs. The islet-infiltrating CD4high T cells displayed selected memory markers, by cell surface analysis, and displayed a Th 1 phenotype by RNase protection assay, but had a marked decrease in IL-4 mRNA determined by quantitative real time PCR when compared with the less pathogenic CD4normal islet-infiltrating T cells. Use of the CD4high marker to select Ag activated T cells represents a tool to isolate and study pathogenic CD4+ T cells from autoimmune lesions in which the Ag has not been previously defined. (+info)Circulating antibodies against an exocrine pancreatic enzyme in type 1 diabetes. (5/617)
In this article, we report the identification of a new autoantigen in type 1 diabetes originating from the exocrine pancreas. This antigen is a pancreatic enzyme termed bile salt-dependent lipase (BSDL). We show that antibodies present in the sera of newly diagnosed type 1 diabetic patients recognize BSDL and more specifically the COOH-terminal mucin-like region of the protein. Therefore, we engineered the COOH-terminal peptide of BSDL and demonstrated that autoreactivity was linked to specific glycosylation sites by at least two glycosyltransferases: the Core 2 beta(1-6)N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase and the alpha(1-3) fucosyltransferase FUT7. We next examined the prevalence of circulating anti-BSDL antibodies in type 1 diabetic patients and found 73.5% positivity (25 sera among 34 patients tested) at onset, whereas only 8.4% of normal individuals (7 of 83) were positive. Within a cohort of first-degree relatives of diabetic patients followed prospectively until development of diabetes, 6 of 19 (31.6%) were also positive. Interestingly, two prediabetic individuals were already positive for anti-BSDL antibodies (Abs), while islet cell cytoplasmic Abs and antibodies to GAD65, IA-2, and insulin were not detected. Anti-BSDL autoantibodies were weakly or not detected in patients suffering from pancreatitis or pancreatic adenocarcinoma or in patients with Graves' disease. Although autoreactivity to BSDL in prediabetic and newly diagnosed diabetic patients might reflect cross-reactivity, our results strongly suggest that in addition to pancreatic beta-cells, acinar cells may be also affected in type 1 diabetes. (+info)Alteration in aortic wall stiffness and accumulation of collagen during the prediabetic stage of type II diabetes mellitus in rats. (6/617)
Aortic damage during the prediabetic stage of diabetes mellitus (DM) was investigated in Otsuka Long-Evans Tokushima Fatty (OLETF) rats, as an animal model of type II DM. In 30 OLETF and 30 nonDM rats, an oral glucose tolerance test was performed at 10, 20 and 30 weeks of age. At 15 and 30 weeks, intravascular ultrasound images and aortic pressure were recorded and the stiffness parameter beta was calculated. The aortic walls were excised at 5, 15 and 30 weeks for histopathology and the measurement of hydroxyproline. At 10 weeks, blood glucose (mg/dl) and insulin concentrations (ng/ml) of the OLETF rats (2h; 168+/-30 and 0.82+/-0.15) were significantly high (nonDM: 118+/-15; p = 0.02 and 0.16+/-0.64; p = 0.003). At the prediabetic stage (15 weeks), beta in the OLETF rats (2.5+/-0.9) was larger than in nonDM rats (1.4+/-0.4; p = 0.0006), and the collagen (hydroxyproline) content/dry weight (mg/g) of the aortic wall was significantly higher in OLETF (33.5+/-3.1) than in nonDM rats (28.7+/-3.5; p<.05). Histopathological examination showed that from 15 weeks of age the medial wall thickness increased gradually. In the prediabetic stage, collagen accumulation may contribute to impairment of aortic wall stiffness in the OLETF rats, which would accelerate the aging process in the aortic wall. (+info)Alteration in left ventricular diastolic filling and accumulation of myocardial collagen at insulin-resistant prediabetic stage of a type II diabetic rat model. (7/617)
BACKGROUND: Considerable controversy exists regarding impairment of cardiac function in diabetes mellitus (DM). We investigated the serial changes in left ventricular (LV) histopathology and LV filling dynamics in Otsuka Long-Evans Tokushima Fatty (OLETF) rats, which have been established as an animal model of type II DM. METHODS AND RESULTS: In 54 OLETF and 54 non-DM rats, body weight, blood pressure, heart rate, and transmitral pulsed Doppler examinations were performed from 5 to 47 weeks of age. An oral glucose tolerance test was performed at 10, 20, and 30 weeks of age. The hearts were excised for histopathology, including immunohistochemistry and histomorphometry of collagen, and measurement of hydroxyproline at baseline and each stage of developing DM. In the prediabetic stage (15 weeks of age), in which fast blood glucose remained normal, OLETF rats manifested mild obesity, postprandial hyperglycemia, and hyperinsulinemia, and early diastolic transmitral inflow exhibited prolonged deceleration time (OLETF, 59+/-10 ms versus non-DM, 49+/-8 ms, P<0.01) and low peak velocity (OLETF, 73+/-11 cm/s versus non-DM, 88+/-11 cm/s, P<0.01). Histopathology revealed extracellular fibrosis and abundant transforming growth factor-beta(1) receptor II in LV myocytes of OLETF rats. At 15 weeks of age, the ratio of collagen area/visual field of LV wall in OLETF rats (8.3+/-1.3%) was larger than that in non-DM rats (4.9+/-1.8%, P<0.0001), and the collagen content/dry tissue weight ratio of heart was significantly higher in OLETF (2. 0+/-0.5 mg/g) than non-DM (1.3+/-0.2 mg/g, P<0.01) rats. CONCLUSIONS: A metabolic abnormality present in the prestage of type II DM may produce LV fibrosis and alteration in cardiac function. (+info)B7/CD28 costimulation is essential for the homeostasis of the CD4+CD25+ immunoregulatory T cells that control autoimmune diabetes. (8/617)
CD28/B7 costimulation has been implicated in the induction and progression of autoimmune diseases. Experimentally induced models of autoimmunity have been shown to be prevented or reduced in intensity in mice rendered deficient for CD28 costimulation. In sharp contrast, spontaneous diabetes is exacerbated in both B7-1/B7-2-deficient and CD28-deficient NOD mice. These mice present a profound decrease of the immunoregulatory CD4+CD25+ T cells, which control diabetes in prediabetic NOD mice. These cells are absent from both CD28KO and B7-1/B7-2KO mice, and the transfer of this regulatory T cell subset from control NOD animals into CD28-deficient animals can delay/prevent diabetes. The results suggest that the CD28/ B7 costimulatory pathway is essential for the development and homeostasis of regulatory T cells that control spontaneous autoimmune diseases. (+info)A prediabetic state, also known as impaired glucose tolerance or prediabetes, is a metabolic condition where blood sugar levels are higher than normal but not high enough to meet the diagnostic criteria for diabetes. It is often characterized by insulin resistance and beta-cell dysfunction, which can lead to an increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and other complications if left untreated.
In the prediabetic state, fasting plasma glucose levels are between 100 and 125 mg/dL (5.6-6.9 mmol/L), or hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels are between 5.7% and 6.4%. Lifestyle modifications, such as regular exercise, healthy eating habits, and weight loss, can help prevent or delay the progression of prediabetes to diabetes.
A Glucose Tolerance Test (GTT) is a medical test used to diagnose prediabetes, type 2 diabetes, and gestational diabetes. It measures how well your body is able to process glucose, which is a type of sugar.
During the test, you will be asked to fast (not eat or drink anything except water) for at least eight hours before the test. Then, a healthcare professional will take a blood sample to measure your fasting blood sugar level. After that, you will be given a sugary drink containing a specific amount of glucose. Your blood sugar levels will be measured again after two hours and sometimes also after one hour.
The results of the test will indicate how well your body is able to process the glucose and whether you have normal, impaired, or diabetic glucose tolerance. If your blood sugar levels are higher than normal but not high enough to be diagnosed with diabetes, you may have prediabetes, which means that you are at increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes in the future.
It is important to note that a Glucose Tolerance Test should be performed under the supervision of a healthcare professional, as high blood sugar levels can be dangerous if not properly managed.
Inbred NOD (Nonobese Diabetic) mice are a strain of laboratory mice that are genetically predisposed to develop autoimmune diabetes. This strain was originally developed in Japan and has been widely used as an animal model for studying type 1 diabetes and its complications.
NOD mice typically develop diabetes spontaneously at around 12-14 weeks of age, although the onset and severity of the disease can vary between individual mice. The disease is caused by a breakdown in immune tolerance, leading to an autoimmune attack on the insulin-producing beta cells of the pancreas.
Inbred NOD mice are highly valuable for research purposes because they exhibit many of the same genetic and immunological features as human patients with type 1 diabetes. By studying these mice, researchers can gain insights into the underlying mechanisms of the disease and develop new treatments and therapies.
Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1 is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by the destruction of insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas, leading to an absolute deficiency of insulin. This results in an inability to regulate blood glucose levels, causing hyperglycemia (high blood sugar). Type 1 diabetes typically presents in childhood or early adulthood, although it can develop at any age. It is usually managed with regular insulin injections or the use of an insulin pump, along with monitoring of blood glucose levels and adjustments to diet and physical activity. Uncontrolled type 1 diabetes can lead to serious complications such as kidney damage, nerve damage, blindness, and cardiovascular disease.
I'm sorry for any confusion, but "Rats, Zucker" is not a standard medical term or abbreviation in human medicine. It seems to be an incorrect combination of two terms from the field of laboratory animal science.
1. "Rats" are commonly used laboratory animals.
2. "Zucker" is a surname and also refers to a strain of laboratory rats, specifically the Zucker Diabetic Fatty (ZDF) rat, which is a model for studying type 2 diabetes mellitus.
If you have any questions related to human medicine or healthcare, I would be happy to help clarify those for you.
The Islets of Langerhans are clusters of specialized cells within the pancreas, an organ located behind the stomach. These islets are named after Paul Langerhans, who first identified them in 1869. They constitute around 1-2% of the total mass of the pancreas and are distributed throughout its substance.
The Islets of Langerhans contain several types of cells, including:
1. Alpha (α) cells: These produce and release glucagon, a hormone that helps to regulate blood sugar levels by promoting the conversion of glycogen to glucose in the liver when blood sugar levels are low.
2. Beta (β) cells: These produce and release insulin, a hormone that promotes the uptake and utilization of glucose by cells throughout the body, thereby lowering blood sugar levels.
3. Delta (δ) cells: These produce and release somatostatin, a hormone that inhibits the release of both insulin and glucagon and helps regulate their secretion in response to changing blood sugar levels.
4. PP cells (gamma or γ cells): These produce and release pancreatic polypeptide, which plays a role in regulating digestive enzyme secretion and gastrointestinal motility.
Dysfunction of the Islets of Langerhans can lead to various endocrine disorders, such as diabetes mellitus, where insulin-producing beta cells are damaged or destroyed, leading to impaired blood sugar regulation.
Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2 is a metabolic disorder characterized by high blood glucose (or sugar) levels resulting from the body's inability to produce sufficient amounts of insulin or effectively use the insulin it produces. This form of diabetes usually develops gradually over several years and is often associated with older age, obesity, physical inactivity, family history of diabetes, and certain ethnicities.
In Type 2 diabetes, the body's cells become resistant to insulin, meaning they don't respond properly to the hormone. As a result, the pancreas produces more insulin to help glucose enter the cells. Over time, the pancreas can't keep up with the increased demand, leading to high blood glucose levels and diabetes.
Type 2 diabetes is managed through lifestyle modifications such as weight loss, regular exercise, and a healthy diet. Medications, including insulin therapy, may also be necessary to control blood glucose levels and prevent long-term complications associated with the disease, such as heart disease, nerve damage, kidney damage, and vision loss.
Insulin is a hormone produced by the beta cells of the pancreatic islets, primarily in response to elevated levels of glucose in the circulating blood. It plays a crucial role in regulating blood glucose levels and facilitating the uptake and utilization of glucose by peripheral tissues, such as muscle and adipose tissue, for energy production and storage. Insulin also inhibits glucose production in the liver and promotes the storage of excess glucose as glycogen or triglycerides.
Deficiency in insulin secretion or action leads to impaired glucose regulation and can result in conditions such as diabetes mellitus, characterized by chronic hyperglycemia and associated complications. Exogenous insulin is used as a replacement therapy in individuals with diabetes to help manage their blood glucose levels and prevent long-term complications.
Blood glucose, also known as blood sugar, is the concentration of glucose in the blood. Glucose is a simple sugar that serves as the main source of energy for the body's cells. It is carried to each cell through the bloodstream and is absorbed into the cells with the help of insulin, a hormone produced by the pancreas.
The normal range for blood glucose levels in humans is typically between 70 and 130 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) when fasting, and less than 180 mg/dL after meals. Levels that are consistently higher than this may indicate diabetes or other metabolic disorders.
Blood glucose levels can be measured through a variety of methods, including fingerstick blood tests, continuous glucose monitoring systems, and laboratory tests. Regular monitoring of blood glucose levels is important for people with diabetes to help manage their condition and prevent complications.
"Rats, Inbred OLETF" is a specific strain of laboratory rats used in medical research. "OLETF" stands for "Otsuka Long-Evans Tokushima Fatty," which refers to the fact that this strain was developed by crossbreeding and inbreeding Long-Evans rats from the University of Kyoto with local wild rats in Tokushima, Japan, by Otsuka Pharmaceutical Co.
The OLETF rat is a model for studying obesity, type 2 diabetes, and related metabolic disorders. These rats have a genetic mutation that impairs the function of their cholecystokinin-1 (CCK-1) receptors, which are involved in regulating satiety and insulin secretion. As a result, OLETF rats become obese and develop type 2 diabetes as they age.
Inbred strains like the OLETF rat are useful for medical research because they have a consistent genetic background, making it easier to control variables and study the effects of specific genes or interventions. However, it's important to note that results from animal studies may not always translate directly to humans, so further research is needed to confirm any findings.
I'm sorry for any confusion, but "Rats, Inbred BB" is not a widely recognized medical term or abbreviation in human or veterinary medicine. The term "inbred" is used in genetics to describe an organism that has resulted from many generations of mating between closely related individuals, which can lead to a higher incidence of homozygosity (the same allele inherited from both parents) and expression of recessive traits.
The "BB" strain could refer to a specific inbred rat strain, but without more context, it's difficult to provide a precise definition. The BB Wistar rat strain is sometimes used in research, and it has been used as a model for studying various medical conditions such as diabetes and hypertension.
If you are looking for information about a specific scientific study or medical condition related to an "Inbred BB" rat strain, I would be happy to help you if you could provide more context or details.
