Voltage-gated Ca2+ channels (Cav) are essential for pancreatic beta cell function as they mediate Ca2+ influx, which leads to insulin exocytosis. The β3 subunit of Cav (Cavβ3) has been suggested to regulate cytosolic Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) oscillation frequency and insulin secretion under physiological conditions, but its role in diabetes is unclear. Here, we report that islets from diabetic mice show Cavβ3 overexpression, altered [Ca2+]i dynamics, and impaired insulin secretion upon glucose stimulation. Consequently, in high-fat diet (HFD)-induced diabetes, Cavβ3-deficient (Cavβ3−/−) mice showed improved islet function and enhanced glucose tolerance. Normalization of Cavβ3 expression in ob/ob islets by an antisense oligonucleotide rescued the altered [Ca2+]i dynamics and impaired insulin secretion. Importantly, transplantation of Cavβ3−/− islets into the anterior chamber of the eye improved glucose tolerance in HFD-fed mice. Cavβ3 overexpression in human islets also impaired insulin secretion. We thus suggest that Cavβ3 may serve as a druggable target for diabetes treatment. Pancreatic islets from diabetic mice have increased level of Cavβ3 Overexpression of Cavβ3 in islets alters Ca2+ dynamics and impairs insulin secretion Deficiency of Cavβ3 prevents islet dysfunction and glucose intolerance in diabetes Blocking Cavβ3 improves islet function and glucose tolerance after onset of diabetes Lee et al. report that pancreatic islets from diabetic mice overexpress Cavβ3, resulting in altered [Ca2+]i dynamics and impaired insulin secretion. Reducing Cavβ3 expression recovers islet dysfunction and glucose homeostasis. Experiments with human islets suggest that Cavβ3 may constitute a druggable target in diabetes treatment.
