Dipeptidylpeptidase IV (DPP-IV) is a well-documented drug target for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. Hepatocyte nuclear factors (HNF)-1alpha and HNF-1beta, known as the causal genes of MODY3 and MODY5, respectively, have been reported to be involved in regulation of DPP-IV gene expression. But, it is not completely clear (i) that they play roles in regulation of DPP-IV gene expression, and (ii) whether DPP-IV gene activity is changed by mutant HNF-1alpha and mutant HNF-1beta in MODY3 and MODY5. To explore these questions, we investigated transactivation effects of wild HNF-1alpha and 13 mutant HNF-1alpha, as well as wild HNF-1beta and 2 mutant HNF-1beta, on DPP-IV promoter luciferase gene in Caco-2 cells by means of a transient experiment. Both wild HNF-1alpha and wild HNF-1beta significantly transactivated DPP-IV promoter, but mutant HNF-1alpha and mutant HNF-1beta exhibited low transactivation activity. Moreover, to study whether mutant HNF-1alpha and mutant HNF-1beta change endogenous DPP-IV enzyme activity, we produced four stable cell lines from Caco-2 cells, in which wild HNF-1alpha or wild HNF-1beta, or else respective dominant-negative mutant HNF-1alphaT539fsdelC or dominant-negative mutant HNF-1betaR177X, was stably expressed. We found that DPP-IV gene expression and enzyme activity were significantly increased in wild HNF-1alpha cells and wild HNF-1beta cells, whereas they decreased in HNF-1alphaT539fsdelC cells and HNF-1betaR177X cells, compared with DPP-IV gene expression and enzyme activity in Caco-2 cells. These results suggest that both wild HNF-1alpha and wild HNF-1beta have a stimulatory effect on DPP-IV gene expression, but that mutant HNF-1alpha and mutant HNF-1beta attenuate the stimulatory effect.
