...Hyperglycemia and ‘‘insulin demand’’ have been suggested to directly mediate b cell proliferation in other models (Porat et al., 2011; Sharma et al., 2015)....

...Recently, Alonso and colleagues reported that mild ER stress is associated with increased b cell proliferation in the context of sustained hyperglycemia, and that this effect could be reversed by ATF6 and IRE1 inhibitors, but not an inhibitor of the PERK pathway (Sharma et al., 2015)....

...(39) suggested that induction of UPR functioned as a sensor of insulin demand and induced β cell proliferation through the activation of ATF6 in mouse and human islets....

...Significantly, increased number of β cells is observed in response to elevated demand of insulin in several rodentmodels of obesity anddiabetes, and the main mechanism underlying this is the proliferation of fully differentiated β cells [2, 38, 39]....

...Taken with the caveats that small-molecule inhibitors may have off-target effects on other pathways or tissues and that TUDCA may reduce metabolic demand in high-demand states, such as HFDfed or db/db mice (36), these results suggest that UPR activation may be required for insulin demand or ER stress–driven β cell proliferation in vivo....

...After separation on SDS-PAGE, proteins were transferred to PVDF membrane, and the membrane was then blocked for 1–2 hours with 5% skim milk powder containing PBS and 0.1% Tween-20....

...Pancreatic islets were isolated and hand-picked on ice in ICM containing 1% FBS. Islet lysates from 4 mice in each condition were pooled, labeled with Cy3 or Cy5 (University of Pittsburgh Proteomics Core), combined, focused to 70,000 volt-hours (IPGphor power source, Bio-Rad) on Immobiline pH 4-10 isoelectric focusing strips, and separated by SDS-PAGE (66)....

...To determine whether ER stress applied directly to the β cell increases β cell proliferation in vivo, we studied heterozygous Ins2C96Y/+ (herein referred to as Akita) mice, in which a mutant proinsulin (1 of 4 insulin alleles) causes β cell ER stress due to improper disulfide formation (32, 33)....
