Abstract in Portuguese
BMPs ocupam papel central na diferenciação e crescimento celulares. A sinalização intracelular das BMPs depende de substratos conhecidos como BR-SMADs (SMAD1/5/8). Em ilhotas pancreáticas de ratas grávidas, onde ocorre aumento da massa endócrina e da síntese e secreção de insulina, houve aumento da expressão do receptor BMPR1A. Em camundongos knockout para BMPR1A houve diminuição da expressão de genes-chave na exocitose de grânulos de insulina. Tais eventos estão associados à redução da atividade das BR-SMADs. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar, em células b INS1E, o perfil de expressão gênica em larga escala após silenciamento das BR-SMADs. As expressões relativas de Munc18a, Munc18b e Snap23 foram reduzidas quando do silenciamento das BR-SMADs (n=3, p<0,05 vs CTL). O silenciamento de SMAD1 (n=3, p<0,05 vs CTL) ou SMAD5 (n=3, p<0,05 vs CTL) acarretaram redução do mRNA de Sintaxina 4. Conclui-se que as BR-SMADs estão envolvidas na regulação da secreção de insulina modulando proteínas envolvidas na fusão de vesículas contendo grânulos de insulina à membrana plasmática de células INS1E.

Abstract in English
BMPs play a determinant role in cell differentiation and growth. BMP intracellular signaling involves the substrates know as BR-SMADs (SMAD1/5/8). BMPR1A receptor expression was upregulated in pancreatic islets from pregnant rats, in wich endocrine mass and insulin secretion are increased. Mice with attenuated BMPR1A signaling in b cells showed decreased expression of key genes involved in insulin exocytosis. These events are associated with reduction of BR-SMADs activity. The aim of this work was to perform a screening to evaluate changes in expression profiles after knockdown of BR-SMADs in INS1E b cells. Relative expressions of Munc18a, Munc18b and Snap23 were diminished after knockdown of the BRSMADs (n=3, p<0,05 vs CTL). Only SMAD1 (n=3, p<0,05 vs CTL) and SMAD5 (n=3, p<0,05 vs CTL) silencing caused reduction of sintaxin 4 expression. These data point to the involvement of BR-SMADs in the regulation of insulin secretion by modulating the expression of proteins responsible by fusion of insulin-containing granules to the membrane of INS1E cells.
