Dysfunction of pancreatic beta-cell is a major determinant for the development of type 2 diabetes. Because of the stimulated insulin secretion in metabolic syndrome, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress plays a central mediator for beta-cell failure. In this study, we investigated whether an antioxidant phenolic compound, tyrosol protects against beta-cell dysfunction associated with ER stress. To address this issue, we exposed pancreatic beta cells, NIT-1 to tunicamycin with tyrosol. We found tyrosol diminished tunicamycin-induced cell death in a dose-dependent manner. We also detected tyrosol decreased the expressions of apoptosis-related markers. Exposure to tunicamycin evoked UPR response and co-treatment of tyrosol led to reduction of ER stress. These effects of tyrosol were mediated by the phosphorylation of JNK. Moreover, we confirmed supplement of tyrosol ameliorated beta-cell loss induced by high fat feeding. Taken together, our study provides a molecular basis for signaling transduction of protective effect of tyrosol against ER stress-induced beta-cell death. Therefore, we suggest tyrosol could be a potential therapeutic candidate for amelioration of type 2 diabetes. (C) 2015 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
