Cytokines contribute to pancreatic islet inflammation, leading to impaired glucose homeostasis and diabetic diseases. A plethora of data shows that proinflammatory cytokines are produced in pancreatic islets by infiltrating mononuclear immune cells. Here, we show that pancreatic islet ? cells and ? cells express tumor necrosis factor-? (TNF-?) and other cytokines capable of promoting islet inflammation when exposed to interleukin-1? (IL-1?). Cytokine expression by ? cells was dependent on calcineurin (CN)/nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT) and MAPK signaling. NFAT associated with the TNF-? promoter in response to stimuli and synergistically activated promoter activity with ATF2 and c-Jun. In contrast, the ?-cell-specific transcriptional activator MafA could repress NFAT-mediated TNF-? gene expression whenever C/EBP-? was bound to the promoter. NFAT differentially regulated the TNF-? gene depending upon the expression and MAPK-dependent activation of interacting basic leucine zipper partners in ? cells. Both p38 and JNK were required for induction of TNF-? mRNA and protein expression. Collectively, the data show that glucose and IL-1? can activate signaling pathways, which control induction and repression of cytokines in pancreatic endocrine cells. Thus, by these mechanisms, pancreatic ? cells themselves may contribute to islet inflammation and their own immunological destruction in the pathogenesis of diabetes.
