Title Molecular phenotyping of multiple mouse strains under metabolic challenge uncovers Elovl2 as a novel regulator of glucose-induced insulin secretion
Organism Mus musculus
Experiment type Expression profiling by high throughput sequencing
Summary Defective insulin secretion by pancreatic β cells underlies the development of type 2 diabetes (T2D). High fat diet-fed mice are commonly used to study diabetes progression, but studies are usually limited to a single strain, such as C57Bl/6J. Here, we use a systems biology approach to integrate large phenotypic and islet transcriptomic data sets from six commonly used strains fed a high fat or regular chow diet to identify genes associated with glucose intolerance and insulin secretion. One of these genes is Elovl2, encoding very long chain fatty acid elongase 2. ELOVL2 is responsible for the synthesis of the polyunsaturated fatty acid, docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). We show that DHA rescues glucose-induced insulin secretion and cytosolic Ca2+ influx impaired by glucolipotoxicity, and that Elovl2 over-expression is able to restore the insulin secretion defect under these conditions. We propose that increased endogenous DHA levels resulting from Elovl2 up-regulation counteracts the insulin secretion defect associated with glucolipotoxicity. Although we focus our experimental validation on Elovl2, the comprehensive data set and integrative network model we used to identify this candidate gene represents an important novel resource to dissect the molecular aetiology of β cell failure in murine models.
