Role of phosphoinositide metabolism in induction of memory in isolated perifused rat islets.

Prior exposure of isolated perifused rat islets to 20 mM glucose or 10 mM glyceraldehyde amplifies their subsequent insulin secretory response to 10 mM glucose. The involvement of phosphoinositide turnover in the induction of this "time-dependent potentiation" (TDP) was investigated. In islets in which inositol-containing phospholipids were prelabeled with myo-[2-3H]inositol, the addition of 20 mM glucose augments the efflux of 3H. This effect persists for approximately 50 min after the cessation of stimulation. Direct measurements of labeled inositol phosphate accumulation confirmed that this increase in 3H efflux is primarily the result of a persistent increase in phosphoinositide (PI) hydrolysis and not due to the slow efflux and/or degradation of performed [3H]inositol phosphates. The duration of the increase in 3H efflux parallels the duration of TDP. Mannoheptulose abolishes both the increase in 3H efflux evoked by 20 mM glucose and TDP. The omission of extracellular calcium plus 0.5 mM ethylene glycol-bis(beta-aminoethylether)-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid also abolishes both of these effects of high glucose. D-Glyceraldehyde (10 mM) addition to 3H-inositol-prelabeled islets results in an acute efflux of 3H, a persistent efflux after removal of the D-glyceraldehyde from the perifusion medium, and the induction of TDP. Similar to the results obtained with high glucose, the return of 3H efflux rates to prestimulatory values is accompanied by the abolition of TDP. These results suggest that events associated with persistent stimulant-induced increases in phosphoinositide hydrolysis may participate in the induction and maintenance of TDP.
