Zhang, Guo-Fang published the artcileReductive TCA cycle metabolism fuels glutamine- and glucose-stimulated insulin secretion, Product Details of C4H6O5, the main research area is TCA cycle metabolism fuel glucose insulin secretion; NADPH; anaplerosis; insulin secretion; isocitrate dehydrogenase-2; metabolic flux; pancreatic islet β cells; reductive TCA cycle; stable isotopes.

Metabolic fuels regulate insulin secretion by generating second messengers that drive insulin granule exocytosis, but the biochem. pathways involved are incompletely understood. Here we demonstrate that stimulation of rat insulinoma cells or primary rat islets with glucose or glutamine + 2-aminobicyclo-(2,2,1)-heptane-2-carboxylic acid (Gln + BCH) induces reductive, “”counter-clockwise”” tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle flux of glutamine to citrate. Mol. or pharmacol. suppression of isocitrate dehydrogenase-2 (IDH2), which catalyzes reductive carboxylation of 2-ketoglutarate to isocitrate, results in impairment of glucose- and Gln + BCH-stimulated reductive TCA cycle flux, lowering of NADPH levels, and inhibition of insulin secretion. Pharmacol. suppression of IDH2 also inhibits insulin secretion in living mice. Reductive TCA cycle flux has been proposed as a mechanism for generation of biomass in cancer cells. Here we demonstrate that reductive TCA cycle flux also produces stimulus-secretion coupling factors that regulate insulin secretion, including in non-dividing cells.
