DOC2b enrichment mitigates proinflammatory cytokine-induced CXCL10 expression by attenuating IKKβ and STAT-1 signaling in human islets
Introduction: Type 1 diabetic human islet β-cells are deficient in double C 2 like domain beta (DOC2b) protein. Further, DOC2b protects against cytokine-induced pancreatic islet β-cell stress and apoptosis. However, the mechanisms underpinning the protective effects of DOC2b remain unknown.
Methods: Biochemical studies, qPCR, proteomics, and immuno-confocal microscopy were conducted to determine the underlying protective mechanisms of DOC2b in β-cells. DOC2b-enriched or -depleted primary islets (human and mouse) and β-cell lines challenged with or without proinflammatory cytokines, global DOC2b heterozygous knockout mice subjected to multiple-low-dose-streptozotocin (MLD-STZ), were used for these studies.
Results: A significant elevation of stress-induced CXCL10 mRNA was observed in DOC2b-depleted β-cells and primary mouse islets. Further, DOC2b enrichment markedly attenuated cytokine-induced CXCL10 levels in primary non-di abetic human islets and β-cells. DOC2b enrichment also reduced total-NF-κB p65 protein levels in human islets challenged with T1D mimicking proinflammatory cytokines. IKKβ, NF-κB p65, and STAT-1 are capable of associating with DOC2b in cytokine-challenged β-cells. DOC2b enrichment in cytokine-stressed human islets and β-cells corresponded with a significant reduction in activated and total IKKβ protein levels. Total IκBβ protein was increased in DOC2b-enriched human islets subjected to acute cytokine challenge. Cytokine-induced activated and total STAT-1 protein and mRNA levels were markedly reduced in DOC2b-enriched human islets. Intriguingly, DOC2b also prevents ER-stress-IKKβ and STAT-1 crosstalk in the rat INS1-832/13 β-cell line.
Conclusion: The mechanisms underpinning the protective effects of DOC2b involve attenuation of IKKβ-NF-κB p65 and STAT-1 signaling, and reduced CXCL10 expression. © 2025 Elsevier Inc.
