In insulin-secreting cells, cytokines activate the c-Jun N-terminal kinase
(JNK), which contributes to a cell signaling towards apoptosis. The JNK
activation requires the presence of the murine scaffold protein
JNK-interacting protein 1 (JIP-1) or human Islet-brain 1(IB1), which organizes
MLK3, MKK7 and JNK for proper signaling specificity. Here, we used
adenovirus-mediated gene transfer to modulate IB1/JIP-1 cellular content in
order to investigate the contribution of IB1/JIP-1 to ß-cell survival.
Exposure of the insulin-producing cell line INS-1 or isolated rat pancreatic
islets to cytokines (interferon-
, tumor necrosis factor-
and
interleukin-1ß) induced a marked reduction of IB1/JIP-1 content and a
concomitant increase in JNK activity and apoptosis rate. This JNK-induced
pro-apoptotic program was prevented in INS-1 cells by overproducing IB1/JIP-1
and this effect was associated with inhibition of caspase-3 cleavage.
Conversely, reducing IB1/JIP-1 content in INS-1 cells and isolated pancreatic
islets induced a robust increase in basal and cytokine-stimulated apoptosis.
In heterozygous mice carrying a selective disruption of the IB1/JIP-1 gene,
the reduction in IB1/JIP-1 content in happloinsufficient isolated pancreatic
islets was associated with an increased JNK activity and basal apoptosis.
These data demonstrate that modulation of the IB1-JIP-1 content in ß
cells is a crucial regulator of JNK signaling pathway and of cytokine-induced
apoptosis.
