Abstract

Many metabolic factors affect the secretion of insulin from beta-cells and glucagon from alpha-cells of the islets of Langerhans to regulate blood glucose. Somatostatin from delta-cells, considered a local inhibitor of islet function, reduces insulin and glucagon secretion by activating somatostatin receptors in islet cells. Somatostatin secretion from delta-cells is increased by high glucose via glucose metabolism in a similar way to insulin secretion from beta-cells. However, it is unknown how low glucose triggers somatostatin secretion. Because L-glutamate is cosecreted with glucagon from alpha-cells under low-glucose conditions and acts as a primary intercellular messenger, we hypothesized that glutamate signaling triggers the secretion of somatostatin. In this study, we showed that delta-cells express GluR4c-flip, a newly identified splicing variant of GluR4, an (RS)-alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA)-type ionotropic glutamate receptor of rat. After treatment with L-glutamate, AMPA, or kainate, secretion of somatostatin from isolated islets was significantly stimulated under low-glucose conditions. The glutamate-dependent somatostatin secretion was Ca(2+) dependent and blocked by 6-cyano-7-nitr...Continue Reading
