Chronic exposure of HIT-T15 cells to supraphysiologic glucose concentration diminishes insulin gene expression and decreased binding of two critical insulin gene transcription factors, STF-1 and RIPE-3b1 activator. To distinguish whether these changes are caused by glucose toxicity or beta cell exhaustion, HIT-T15 cells grown from passage 75 through 99 in media containing 11.1 mM glucose were switched to 0.8 mM glucose at passage 100. They regained binding of STF-1 and RIPE-3b1 activator and had a partial but minimal return of insulin mRNA expression. In a second study, inclusion of somatostatin in the media-containing 11.1 mM glucose inhibited insulin secretion; however, despite this protection against beta cell exhaustion, dramatic decreases in insulin gene expression, STF-1 and RIPE-3b1 binding, and insulin gene promoter activity still occurred. These data indicate that the glucotoxic effects caused by chronic exposure to supraphysiologic concentration of glucose are only minimally reversible and that they are not due simply to beta cell exhaustion. These observations carry with them the clinical implication that Type II diabetic patients who remain hyperglycemic for prolonged periods may have secondary glucose toxic effects on the beta cell that could lead to defective insulin gene expression and worsening of hyperglycemia.
