PG - 4887-4905 LID - 10.1113/JP279941 [doi] AB - KEY POINTS: Tetraspanin (TSPAN) proteins regulate many biological processes, including intracellular calcium (Ca(2+) ) handling. TSPAN-7 is enriched in pancreatic islet cells; however, the function of islet TSPAN-7 has not been identified. Here, we characterize how beta-cell TSPAN-7 regulates Ca(2+) handling and hormone secretion. We find that TSPAN-7 reduces beta-cell glucose-stimulated Ca(2+) entry, slows Ca(2+) oscillation frequency and decreases glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. TSPAN-7 controls beta-cell function through a direct interaction with L-type voltage-dependent Ca(2+) channels (Ca(V) 1.2 and Ca(V) 1.3), which reduces channel Ca(2+) conductance. TSPAN-7 slows activation of Ca(V) 1.2 and accelerates recovery from voltage-dependent inactivation; TSPAN-7 also slows Ca(V) 1.3 inactivation kinetics. These findings strongly implicate TSPAN-7 as a key regulator in determining the set-point of glucose-stimulated Ca(2+) influx and insulin secretion. ABSTRACT: Glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) is regulated by calcium (Ca(2+) ) entry into pancreatic beta-cells through voltage-dependent Ca(2+) (Ca(V) ) channels. Tetraspanin (TSPAN) transmembrane proteins control Ca(2+) handling, and thus they may also modulate GSIS. TSPAN-7 is the most abundant islet TSPAN and immunostaining of mouse and human pancreatic slices shows that TSPAN-7 is highly expressed in beta- and alpha-cells; however, the function of islet TSPAN-7 has not been determined. Here, we show that TSPAN-7 knockdown (KD) increases glucose-stimulated Ca(2+) influx into mouse and human beta-cells. Additionally, mouse beta-cell Ca(2+) oscillation frequency was accelerated by TSPAN-7 KD. Because TSPAN-7 KD also enhanced Ca(2+) entry when membrane potential was clamped with depolarization, the effect of TSPAN-7 on Ca(V) channel activity was examined. TSPAN-7 KD enhanced L-type Ca(V) currents in mouse and human beta-cells. Conversely, heterologous expression of TSPAN-7 with Ca(V) 1.2 and Ca(V) 1.3 L-type Ca(V) channels decreased Ca(V) currents and reduced Ca(2+) influx through both channels. This was presumably the result of a direct interaction of TSPAN-7 and L-type Ca(V) channels because TSPAN-7 coimmunoprecipitated with both Ca(V) 1.2 and Ca(V) 1.3 from primary human beta-cells and from a heterologous expression system. Finally, TSPAN-7 KD in human beta-cells increased basal (5.6 mM glucose) and stimulated (45 mM KCl + 14 mM glucose) insulin secretion. These findings strongly suggest that TSPAN-7 modulation of beta-cell L-type Ca(V) channels is a key determinant of beta-cell glucose-stimulated Ca(2+) entry and thus the set-point of GSIS.
