Previous studies have indicated that the pancreas has receptors specific for 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25-(OH)2D3] and that 1,25(OH)2D3 increases insulin secretion in vitamin D-deficient rats. In this study we report that in vitamin D-replete, but calcium-deficient, rats in which 1,25-(OH)2D3 levels are elevated, insulin secretion is not altered. In addition, in in vitro studies 1,25-(OH)2D3 at concentrations of 10(-10)-10(-7) M was consistently found to inhibit insulin secretion from islets of vitamin D-replete rats or from the rat insulinoma beta-cell line RIN 1046-38. The RIN cell line was found to contain both vitamin D receptors and calbindin-D28k (CaBP-D28k) protein and mRNA. In RIN cells, treatment with sodium butyrate (2 mm for 3 days) induces a more islet phenotype, as indicated by increased insulin content and secretion and increased insulin gene expression. 1,25-(OH)2D3 treatment (50-100 nm for 48 or 72 h) had no effect on the enhanced levels of insulin secreted in the presence of butyrate. However, 2 mm sodium butyrate induced CaBP-D28k protein (4-fold; control, 0.8 +/- 0.2; sodium butyrate, 3.5 +/- 0.1 mug/mg protein) and mRNA (3-fold) in the RIN cell line, in accord with the induction by butyrate of insulin content and secretion and beta-cell differentiation, suggesting a possible role for CaBP-D28k in these processes. Although 1,25-(OH)2D3, unlike butyrate, did not enhance insulin secretion, both 1,25-(OH)2D3 (100 nm) and butyrate (2 mM) inhibited RIN cell growth (to 69% and 28% of the control, respectively), and butyrate and 1,25-(OH)2D, in combination led to a further inhibition of cell growth (to 13% of the control). In response to 1,25-(OH)2D3 (10 nM for 72 h), vitamin D receptors were up-regulated 313% in RIN cells [control, 37 +/- 2; 1,25-(OH)2D3 treated, 115 +/- 5 fmol/mg protein]. In conclusion, 1) contrary to previous studies in the vitamin D-deficient rat, our findings indicate that 1,25-(OH)2D3 action does not necessarily result in enhanced insulin secretion; 2) inhibition of cell growth and up-regulation of vitamin D receptors by 1,25-(OH)2D3 suggest that parameters in addition to insulin secretion can be affected by 1,25-(OH)2D3 in the beta-cell; 3) the RIN beta-cell line provides a novel in vitro system for studying the effect of the vitamin D endocrine system on pancreatic islet physiology.
