| Research Abstract |
The dynamic motion of single insulin secretory granules near the plasma membrane was examined in SUR1 knock-out (Sur1KO) β-cells by total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy. Sur1KO β-cells exhibited a marked reduction in the number of fusion events from previously docked granules. However, the number of docked granules declined during stimulation as a consequence of the release of docked granules into the cytoplasm vs. fusion with the plasma membrane. The similar result was observed by the stimulation of Sur1KO β-cells with high concentration of potassium ions. Thus, the impaired docking and fusion resulted in decreased insulin exocytosis from Sur1KO β-cells.
We next studied how cAMP amplified insulin exocytosis. Rat islets were permeabilized with α-toxin to measure insulin exocytosis in the fixed conditions of Ca^<2+> and ATP. The effects of several agents on insulin exocytosis were observed in perifusion experiments. Cyclic AMP enhanced the Ca^<2+>-induced insulin release by

around 30%, independent of Ca^<2+> concentrations between 10 and 3000 nmol/L. A cAMP-GEF selective cAMP analogue, 8-(4-chloro-phenylthio)-2-Omethyladenosine- 3,5-cyclic monophosphate, also amplified insulin release. The effect disappeared in the absence of ATP. Conversely, cAMP-independent gradual increase in insulin release was observed with ATP. These results suggested that the site of action of cAMP-GEF existed proximal to that of ATP. An analogue selective to PKA, N6-Benzoyladenosine-3,5-cyclic monophosphate, had little effect. Also, a PKA-selective inhibitor, N-[2-(p-bromocinnamylamino)ethyl]-5-isoquinolinesulfonamide, reduced insulin releases induced by 1000 nmol/L Ca^<2+>, but did not influence the relative increase produced by Ca^<2+> and cAMP. Cyclic AMP potentiated Ca^<2+> and ATP-induced exocytosis to a similar relative extent independent of Ca^<2+> concentrations. The process appeared to be mainly mediated by cAMP-GEF. In addition, the cAMP/cAMP-GEF pathway may enhance insulin release by replenishing the readily releasable pool. Less
