?-Synuclein has been studied in numerous cell types often associated with
secretory processes. In pancreatic ?-cells, ?-synuclein might therefore play a
similar role by interacting with organelles involved in insulin secretion. We
tested for ?-synuclein localizing to insulin-secretory granules and characterized
its role in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. Immunohistochemistry and
fluorescent sulfonylureas were used to test for ?-synuclein localization to
insulin granules in ?-cells, immunoprecipitation with Western blot analysis for
interaction between ?-synuclein and K(ATP) channels, and ELISA assays for the
effect of altering ?-synuclein expression up or down on insulin secretion in INS1
cells or mouse islets, respectively. Differences in cellular phenotype between
?-synuclein knockout and wild-type ?-cells were found by using confocal
microscopy to image the fluorescent insulin biosensor Ins-C-emGFP and by using
transmission electron microscopy. The results show that anti-?-synuclein
antibodies labeled secretory organelles within ?-cells. Anti-?-synuclein
antibodies colocalized with K(ATP) channel, anti-insulin, and anti-C-peptide
antibodies. ?-Synuclein coimmunoprecipitated in complexes with K(ATP) channels.
Expression of ?-synuclein downregulated insulin secretion at 2.8 mM glucose with
little effect following 16.7 mM glucose stimulation. ?-Synuclein knockout islets
upregulated insulin secretion at 2.8 and 8.4 mM but not 16.7 mM glucose,
consistent with the depleted insulin granule density at the ?-cell surface
membranes observed in these islets. These findings demonstrate that ?-synuclein
interacts with K(ATP) channels and insulin-secretory granules and functionally
acts as a brake on secretion that glucose stimulation can override. ?-Synuclein
might play similar roles in diabetes as it does in other degenerative diseases,
including Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases.
