Messenger RNA delivery to islet β cells using conjugated lipid nanoparticles

Jacob R. Enriquez, Zhengjie Zhou, Jennifer B. Nelson, Fei Huang et autres

Effective therapies for type 1 diabetes (T1D) must both restrain immune hyperactivity and reduce β cell susceptibility to destruction. We describe a lipid nanoparticle (LNP) platform for β cell-enriched mRNA delivery that can be further augmented by conjugation to enhanced glucagon-like peptide-1 …

Islet-intrinsic sex differences in inflammatory signaling contribute to autoimmune diabetes susceptibility

Kierstin L. Webster, Armando A. Puente, Jacob R. Enriquez, Soumyadeep Sarkar et autres

Whereas most autoimmune diseases exhibit female predominance, type 1 diabetes (T1D) occurs more frequently in males after puberty, suggesting a role for sex hormones in disease modification. Because islet β cells actively shape local immune responses, we hypothesized that sex-specific islet responses …

12-Lipoxygenase Inhibition Improves Glycemia and Obesity-associated Inflammation in Male Human Gene Replacement Mice

Kerim B. Kaylan, Titli Nargis, Kayla Figatner, Jiayi Wang et autres

Obesity-associated inflammation is characterized by macrophage infiltration into peripheral tissues, contributing to the progression of prediabetes and type 2 diabetes. 12-lipoxygenase (12-LOX) catalyzes the formation of pro-inflammatory eicosanoids and promotes the migration of macrophages, yet its role in obesity-associated inflammation remains incompletely …

Hypusinated and unhypusinated isoforms of the translation factor eIF5A exert distinct effects in models of pancreas development and function

Abhishek Kulkarni, Bernhard Maier, Fei Huang, Kayla Figatner et autres

Hypusination of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5A (eIF5A) is essential for its role in translation elongation and termination. Although the function of hypusinated eIF5A (eIF5A Hyp ) in cellular proliferation is well characterized, the role of its unhypusinated form (eIF5A Lys ) …

12-Lipoxygenase inhibition improves glucose homeostasis and obesity-associated inflammation in human gene replacement mice

Kerim B. Kaylan, Titli Nargis, Kayla Figatner, Jiayi Wang et autres

ABSTRACT Obesity-associated inflammation is characterized by macrophage infiltration into peripheral tissues, contributing to the progression of prediabetes and type 2 diabetes (T2D). The enzyme 12-lipoxygenase (12-LOX) catalyzes the formation of pro-inflammatory eicosanoids and is known to promote the migration of macrophages, yet …

12-Lipoxygenase inhibition delays onset of autoimmune diabetes in human gene replacement mice

Titli Nargis, Charanya Muralidharan, Jacob R. Enriquez, Jiayi E. Wang et autres

Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is characterized by the autoimmune destruction of insulin-producing β cells and involves an interplay between β cells and cells of the innate and adaptive immune systems. We investigated the therapeutic potential of targeting 12-lipoxygenase (12-LOX), an enzyme implicated …

Inhibition of the eukaryotic initiation factor-2α kinase PERK decreases risk of autoimmune diabetes in mice

Charanya Muralidharan, Fei Huang, Jacob R. Enriquez, Jiayi E. Wang et autres

Preventing the onset of autoimmune type 1 diabetes (T1D) is feasible through pharmacological interventions that target molecular stress-responsive mechanisms. Cellular stresses, such as nutrient deficiency, viral infection, or unfolded proteins, trigger the integrated stress response (ISR), which curtails protein synthesis by phosphorylating …

Regulation of tricarboxylate transport and metabolism in Acinetobacter baylyi ADP1

Alyssa C. Baugh, Justin B. Defalco, Chantel V. Duscent-Maitland, Melissa P. Tumen-Velasquez et autres

ABSTRACT Despite the significant presence of plant-derived tricarboxylic acids in some environments, few studies detail the bacterial metabolism of trans -aconitic acid (Taa) and tricarballylic acid (Tcb). In a soil bacterium, Acinetobacter baylyi ADP1, we discovered interrelated pathways for the consumption of …
