Glucose increases insulin secretion by raising
cytoplasmic Ca2+
([Ca2+]i) in -cells
(triggering pathway) and augmenting the efficacy of Ca2+ on
exocytosis (amplifying pathway). It has been suggested that glutamate
formed from -ketoglutarate is a messenger of the amplifying pathway
(Maechler, P., and Wollheim, C. B. (1999) Nature 402, 685-689). This hypothesis was tested with mouse islets depolarized with 30 mM KCl (+ diazoxide) or with a saturating
concentration of sulfonylurea. Because
[Ca2+]i was elevated under these
conditions, insulin secretion was stimulated already in 0 mM glucose. The amplification of secretion produced
by glucose was accompanied by an increase in islet glutamate. However,
glutamine (0.5-2 mM) markedly augmented islet glutamate without affecting insulin secretion, whereas glucose augmented secretion without influencing glutamate levels when these were elevated
by glutamine. Allosteric activation of glutamate dehydrogenase by BCH
(2-amino 2-norbornane carboxylic acid) lowered islet glutamate but
increased insulin secretion. Similar insulin secretion thus occurred at
very different cellular glutamate levels. Glutamine did not affect
islet [Ca2+]i and
pHi, whereas glucose and BCH slightly raised
pHi and either slightly decreased (30 mM KCl) or increased (tolbutamide)
[Ca2+]i. The general dissociation
between changes in islet glutamate and insulin secretion refutes a role
of -cell glutamate in the amplification of insulin secretion
by glucose.
