  • Taking into account a special role of pancreatic β-cells in the development of diabetes mellitus, the effects of peroxiredoxin 6 (Prx6) on the viability and functional activity of rat insulinoma RIN-m5F β-cells were studied under diabetes-simulating conditions. For this purpose, the cells were cultured at elevated glucose concentrations or in the presence of proinflammatory cytokines (TNF-α and IL-1) known for their special role in the cytotoxic autoimmune response in diabetes. It was found that the increased glucose concentration of 23-43 mM caused death of 20-60% β-cells. Prx6 added to cells significantly reduced the level of reactive oxygen species and protected the RIN-m5F ß-cells from hyperglycemia, reducing the death of these cells by several fold. A measurement of insulin secretion by the RIN-m5F ß-cells showed a significant stimulatory effect of Prx6 on the insulin-producing activity of pancreatic β-cells. It should be noted that the stimulatory activity of Prx6 was detected during culturing the cells under both normal and unfavorable conditions. The regulation of the NF-ϰB signaling cascade could be one of the mechanisms of Prx6 action on β-cells, in particular, through activation of RelA/p65 phosphorylation at Ser536.
