[0001]This application incorporates by reference co-pending provisional application Ser. No. 60/388,315 filed Jun. 14, 2002, Ser. No. 60/361,073 filed Mar. 1, 2002, and Ser. No. 60/346,898 filed Jan. 11, 2002.

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0002]The invention relates to the field of assays for the detection of factors that modulate gene expression. Specifically, the invention relates to reporter constructs and methods for identifying agents that modulate the expression of the INGAP gene.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0003]Islet neogenesis gene associated protein (INGAP protein) has been identified as a pancreatic acinar cell protein that can induce islet cell neogenesis from progenitor cells resident in the pancreas in a manner that recapitulates islet development during normal embryogenesis. INGAP is unique in its ability to stimulate growth and differentiation of islets of Langerhans from precursor cells associated with pancreas. These islets evolve a mature insulin secretory profile capable of responding to perturbations in blood glucose in a physiologic manner. This potential anti-diabetic therapeutic has been shown to demonstrate homology across several species and to exert a biological response.

[0004]Pancreatic islet cell mass is lost in type 1 diabetes mellitus, a disease in which a progressive autoimmune reaction results in the selective destruction of insulin-producing β-cells. In type 2 diabetes mellitus, so-called adult-onset disease, but also increasingly a condition in young overweight people, the β-cell mass may be reduced by as much as 60% of normal. The number of functioning β-cells in the pancreas is of critical significance for the development, course, and outcome of diabetes. In type I diabetes, there is a reduction of β-cell mass to less than 2% of normal. Even in the face of severe insulin resistance as occurs in type II diabetes, the development of diabetes only occurs if there is inadequate compensatory increase in β-cell mass. Thus, the development of either of the major forms of diabetes can be regarded as a failure of adaptive β-cell growth and a subsequent deficiency in insulin secretion. Stimulating the growth of islets and β-cells from precursor cells, known as islet neogenesis, is an attractive approach to the amelioration of diabetes. There is need in the art for methods to identify agents that can modulate the expression of INGAP, whether in animals or in cultured cells.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

Definitions

[0032]It must be noted that as used herein and in the appended claims, the singular forms "a", "an", and "the" include plural references unless the context clearly dictates otherwise.

[0033]The term "promoter" is used to define the region of a gene at which initiation and rate of transcription are controlled. It contains the site at which RNA polymerase binds and also sites for the binding of regulatory proteins, e.g. transcription factors, repressors, etc. In order to differentiate between the transcription initiation site and other sites that modulate rate of transcription, promoter region is generally subdivided into "minimal promoter element" and "regulatory region". The term "minimal promoter element" or sometimes simply referred to as "promoter" therefore may include TATA box, GC-rich sequence and CAAT box; while "regulatory region" is usually a long stretch of nucleotide sequence where transcription factors and other factors bind. Most eukaryotic genes have long regulatory regions where many different transcription factors bind. The expression or the lack of expression of a given gene in a given cell type, tissue, organ, or an organism is governed by the interactions that take place on its regulatory region.

[0034]The term "transcription factor" is used to describe the proteins that bind short stretches of DNA in the regulatory regions of a gene. Transcription factors may interact with each other as well as RNA polymerase. Thus, transcription factors may bind hormones or second messengers, DNA, RNA, other transcription factors, or other proteins. They may activate or inhibit transcription of a given gene. Transcription factors are also sometimes referred to as "enhancers" or "repressors". Transcription factor binding sites can be used to identify agents that bind to the 5'-regulatory region of the gene and modulate the gene's expression.

[0035]The term "reporter" is used to describe a coding sequence attached to a heterologous promoter or enhancer elements and whose product, either nucleic acid or protein, is easily detected and is quantifiable. Some common reporter genes include β-galactosidase (lacZ), chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (cat), β-glucuronidase (GUS), and green fluorescent protein (GFP).

[0036]A "reporter construct" is a piece of nucleic acid that includes a promoter element and a reporter gene housed in a suitable vector plasmid DNA. Regulatory region nucleotide sequences may be cloned 5' of the promoter element to determine if they contain transcription factor binding sites. The reporter construct-containing vector is introduced into a cell that contains many transcription factors. Activation of the reporter gene by transcription factors may be monitored by detection and quantification of the product of the reporter gene.

[0037]The term "agent" is used here to essentially describe any means to modulate INGAP expression. Agent may be a chemical compound, a biological agent, or a physical force, a mechanical contraption, or any combinations thereof.

INGAP Promoter and Regulatory Region

[0038]It is a discovery of the present inventors that INGAP gene is regulated by a 5'-regulatory region that is susceptible to modulation by many known transcription factors, including PMA and LIF.

[0039]It is a further discovery of the present invention that the 5'-regulatory region nucleotide sequence of the INGAP gene may be used in screening assays to identify agents capable of modulating the INGAP gene expression. These modulating agents have potential as therapeutic agents for treating pathological conditions including, but not limited to, diabetes mellitus, both type 1 and type 2, endocrine and non-endocrine hypoplasia, hypertrophy, adenoma, neoplasia, and nesidioblastosis.

[0040]Mammalian INGAP, like most genes, has a 5'-regulatory region followed by introns and exons. The sequence of a mammalian (Hamster sp.) INGAP gene is provided as SEQ ID NO: 2. FIG. 1 details the relative location of the 5'-regulatory region, the introns and the exons of the hamster INGAP gene. The boundaries of introns 1-5 and the location of the TATA-box and the poly-A signal are listed in Table 1.

TABLE-US-00001 TABLE 1 Position In INGAP Gene Description (SEQ ID NO: 2) TATA-Box 3094 INTRON 1 3150-3426 INTRON 2 3508-4442 INTRON 3 4562-4735 INTRON 4 4874-5459 INTRON 5 5587-5843 Poly-A Signal 6098-6103

[0041]The nucleotide sequence of the 5'-regulatory region including the promoter elements of mammalian INGAP, is shown partially in SEQ ID NO: 1, and completely in SEQ ID NO: 2 and 23 (nucleotides 1-3137 of SEQ ID NO: 2). Nucleotides 1-3120 of SEQ ID NO: 1 are identical to nucleotides 1-3120 of SEQ ID NO: 2 and SEQ ID NO: 23. An overview of the 5'-regulatory region is shown in FIG. 2. Representative transcription enhancer/repressor binding sites are shown also in FIG. 2. Predicted transcription enhancer/repressor binding sites for nucleotides 1-3123 of the 5'-regulatory region are shown in FIG. 3. Table 3 at the end of the specification details these transcription factors and their binding sites, and their locations in the regulatory region. Potential transcription factor binding analysis was done using MatInspector professional, which is a bioinformatics software that utilizes a library of matrix descriptions for transcription factor binding sites to locate matches in sequences of unlimited length (Quandt, K., Frech, K., Karas, H., Wingender, E., Werner, T. (1995) Nucleic Acids Res. 23, 4878-4884).

[0042]Table 3 lists predicted binding proteins (Further Information) based upon their classification into functionally similar matrix families (Family/matrix). The DNA sequence predicted to bind the protein (Sequence), whether sense or antisense DNA (Str) and location of the sequence in SEQ ID NO: 2, (Position) are listed. Further the similarity to the consecutive highest conserved nucleotides of a matrix (Core sim.) and similarity to all nucleotides in that matrix (Matrix sim.) along with the optimized value (Opt) defined in a way that a minimum number of matches is found in non-regulatory test sequences are also listed. Details to the algorithms used in MatInspectorprofessional® is referenced:

[0043]OPT: This matrix similarity is the optimized value defined in a way that a minimum number of matches are found in non-regulatory test sequences (i.e. with this matrix similarity the number of false positive matches is minimized). This matrix similarity is used when the user checks "Optimized" as the matrix similarity threshold for MatInspector professional®.

[0044]Family: Each matrix belongs to a so-called matrix family, where functionally similar matrices are grouped together, eliminating redundant matches by MatInspector professional® professional (if the family option was selected). E.g. the matrix family V$NFKB includes 5 similar matrices for NFkappaB (V$NFKAPPAB.01, V$NFKAPPAB.02, V$NFKAPPAB.03, V$NFKAPPAB50.01, V$NFKAPPAB65.01) as well as 1 matrix for the NFkappaB related factor c-Rel (V$CREL.01).

[0045]Matrix: The MatInspector professional® matrices have an identifier that indicates one of the following seven groups: vertebrates (V$), insects (I$), plants (P$), fungi (F$), nematodes (N$), bacteria (B$), and other functional elements (0$); followed by an acronym for the factor the matrix refers to, and a consecutive number discriminating between different matrices for the same factor. Thus, V$OCT1.02 indicates the second matrix for vertebral Oct-1 factor.

[0046]Core Sim: The "core sequence" of a matrix is defined as the (usually 4) consecutive highest conserved positions of the matrix. The core similarity is calculated as described here. The maximum core similarity of 1.0 is only reached when the highest conserved bases of a matrix match exactly in the sequence. More important than the core similarity is the matrix similarity which takes into account all bases over the whole matrix length.

[0047]Matrix Sim: The matrix similarity is calculated as described here. A perfect match to the matrix gets a score of 1.00 (each sequence position corresponds to the highest conserved nucleotide at that position in the matrix), a "good" match to the matrix usually has a similarity of >0.80. Mismatches in highly conserved positions of the matrix decrease the matrix similarity more than mismatches in less conserved regions.

[0048]Another aspect of the invention provides for a reporter construct. Reporter constructs contain a 5' regulatory region nucleotide sequence fragment of SEQ ID NO: 23 (e.g., an enhancer and/or repressor binding site containing region), a promoter element (which may or may not be from INGAP regulatory region nucleotide sequence, SEQ ID NO: 23), and a reporter gene. The 5'-regulatory region nucleotide sequence is positioned upstream of the reporter gene. In order to determine the identity of various transcription factors that bind the 5' regulatory region nucleotide sequence and to elucidate their binding locations within the 5' regulatory nucleotide sequence of the INGAP gene, the region may be mapped using deletion analysis. One or more fragments of the regulatory region nucleotide sequence may be initially analyzed for their responses to various transcription factor activators. Once, a region of interest is determined, further fine mapping may be carried out where DNA from different locations within the regulatory region could be combined to make a more robust, and responsive reporter construct. DNA sequences, such as INGAP 5'-regulatory region DNA or a fragment thereof, can be manipulated by methods well known in the art. Examples of such techniques include, but are not limited to, polymerase chain reaction (PCR), restriction enzyme endonuclease digestion, ligation, and gene walking. Cloning fragments of DNA, such as 5'-regulatory regions is well known in the art.

[0049]Another approach to quantify the expression levels of a gene is to measure transcription of the gene. PCR-ELISA may be used to capture transcripts onto a solid phase using biotin or digoxigenin-labelled primers, oligonucleotide probes (oligoprobes) or directly after incorporation of the digoxigenin into the transcripts (Watzinger, F. and Lion, T. (2001) Nucleic Acids Res., 29, e52). Once captured, the transcripts can be detected using an enzyme-labeled avidin or anti-digoxigenin reporter molecule similar to a standard ELISA format Another approach is to employ real-time PCR to detect the transcript of the reporter gene (Mackay, I. M. and Nitsche, A., Nucleic Acids Res. 2002 Mar. 15; 30(6), 1292-305). In real-time PCR fluorogenic nucleotides are used and progress of the transcript is monitored in real-time as the polymerase transcribes the reporter gene.

[0050]The promoter element in the reporter construct may or may not be from the same gene as the 5'-regulatory region. As an example, the enhancer/repressor region from the INGAP 5'-regulatory region, or a fragment of the enhancer/repressor region from the INGAP 5'-regulatory region, may be cloned upstream of a heterologous minimal promoter element, e.g., the minimal CMV promoter (Boshart et al., 1985) and the promoters for TK (Nordeen, 1988), IL-2, and MMTV.

[0051]Transcription of a gene begins around the minimal promoter. FIG. 4 shows the predicted transcription start sites for mammalian INGAP gene (SEQ ID NO: 2). SEQ ID NO: 2 was analyzed using "Neural Network Promoter Prediction" program designed by Martin Reese to identify eukaryotic promoter recognition elements such as TATA-box, GC-box, CAAT-box, and the transcription start site. These promoter elements are present in various combinations separated by various distances in sequence. The program is available on the Internet and is located at http://www.fruitfly.org/seq_tools/promoter.html.

[0052]The reporter construct can be used to identify agents that modulate, either alone or in combination, the expression of INGAP. Some such agents may modulate expression of INGAP by binding to the regulatory region directly while others may regulate expression of transcription factors that bind to the INGAP regulatory region.

[0053]The reporter construct can be transfected into a host cell in vitro, or in vivo through the pancreatic duct, either transiently or stably, and a test agent introduced to the assay system. Examples of test agents include, but are not limited to organic and inorganic chemical agents, carbohydrates, proteins, oligonucleotides, cholecystokinin, mechanically induced pressure, and agents which cause a pancreatic duct obstruction. Expression of the reporter gene product can be determined by an assay appropriate for the reporter gene employed. Examples of such assays include, but are not limited to a luminescent assay for β-galactosidase or luciferase, an enzymatic assay for chloramphenicol acetyl transferase, and fluorescence detection for fluorescent proteins. Such assays are well known in the art, and a skilled artisan will be able to select an appropriate assay for the chosen reporter. A test agent is identified as a modulator of INGAP expression if the test agent modulates expression of the reporter gene product. Preferably the level of increase or decrease is at least 50%, 100%, 200%, 500%, or 1000%, but any statistically significant change can be an indicator of modulatory activity. A skilled artisan may also determine reporter gene product expression in untreated cells, and in treated and untreated cells transfected with a promoter-less reporter gene only. Such determinations can be used to determine background levels of expression.

[0054]Test agents can also be obtained by fractionating pancreatic secretion fluids. A pancreatic duct obstruction can be used as an exemplary method of harvesting pancreatic secretion fluids. The pancreatic secretion fluids can be fractionated by methods well known in the art. Examples include high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC), size exclusion chromatography, hydrophobic interacting columns, and density gradient centrifugation. Individual fractions can be tested for agents that modulate reporter gene expression using a method described herein. The individual fractions can be further fractionated to identify agents that modulate reporter gene expression. The identified test agents can be used to modulate the expression of INGAP.

[0055]A host cell can be any cell suitable for transfection and maintenance in a suitable assay system. Examples of suitable cells include, but are not limited to, mammalian cells, human cells, mouse cells, rat cells, monkey cells, dog cells, bovine cells, and porcine cells. Preferably the cells used will be human cells. The cells could be either transformed cells line or primary cells. Whole organ explants may also be used where the regulation may be monitored over many different cell types. Many methods exist in the art for transfecting or infecting cells with reporter construct DNA. Such methods include, but are not limited to, lipofection, electroporation, calcium phosphate precipitation, DEAE dextran, gene guns, and modified viral techniques (e.g., recombinant adenovirus or recombinant retrovirus). The skilled artisan can readily choose a method suitable for use with a given cell type and assay system.

[0056]The reporter construct can also be introduced in vivo directly into cells of the pancreas. Examples of methods to introduce the reporter construct into pancreatic cells in vivo include pancreatic duct retrograde perfusion and in vivo electroporation (Mir, 2001). The reporter construct encodes a reporter gene product that is readily measured in vivo. A test agent can be administered systemically or locally, and N expression of the reporter gene in vivo can be determined by an assay appropriate for the particular reporter employed. Examples of such include a fluorescence assay for green fluorescent protein.

[0057]Methods for identifying agents that modulate INGAP expression can also be accomplished in vitro. The reporter construct can be contacted with a test agent in vitro under conditions sufficient for transcription and/or translation of the reporter gene. Components such as rabbit reticulocyte lysates or wheat germ extracts can be utilized for such a method. Subsequently, the expression level of the Reporter gene can be determined as described above utilizing an appropriate assay for a given reporter gene. A test agent is identified as a modulator of INGAP expression if the test agent modulates expression of the reporter gene. Threshold levels of change can be set by the practitioner as discussed above.

[0058]A test agent can alternatively be contacted with an isolated and purified INGAP 5'-regulatory DNA molecule and one can determine if the test agent binds to the DNA molecule. Test agents can be a chemical agent, a protein, or a nucleic acid. Appropriate INGAP 5'-regulatory DNA molecules would include nucleotides 1-6586 of SEQ ID NO: 2, the 5'-regulatory region DNA (SEQ ID NO: 1, or SEQ ID NO: 23), or any fragment of the 5'-regulatory region, preferably a fragment which contains one or more enhancer/repressor binding sites. Methods to determine binding of the test agent to the fragment of DNA are well known in the art, e.g., electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA). See for example Sambrook et al., MOLECULAR CLONING: A LABORATORY MANUAL, 2d ed., 1989, at pages 9.50-9.51. Fragments of the 5'-regulatory region can be obtained by methods well known in the art using the disclosed sequence (SEQ ID NO: 2). Examples of such methods include, PCR, restriction enzyme digestion, and chemical synthesis. Any fragment of DNA within the 5'-regulatory region (SEQ ID NO: 1, or 23) can be used. The exact location that an agent binds can be determined for example by utilizing smaller fragments to map precisely the binding site for the test agent. Test agents that bind in the assay can be further tested in other assays that require modulatory activity.

[0059]An agent that causes an increase or decrease in reporter gene expression can be used as a modulator of INGAP expression. The modulator can be administered to a mammal in need of such modulation. Examples of mammals that may need INGAP expression modulation are those with reduced pancreatic function, in particular reduced islet cell function. Such mammals include those who have diabetes mellitus, impaired glucose tolerance, impaired fasting glucose, hyperglycemia, obesity, and pancreatic insufficiency.

[0060]An agent that is identified as a modulator of INGAP expression can be supplied in a kit to treat diseases associated with reduced islet cell function. The kit would comprise in single or divided containers, in single or divided doses a modulator of INGAP expression. Written instructions may be included for using the modulator of INGAP expression. The instructions may simply refer a reader to another location such as a website or other information source.

[0061]Agents that cause an increase in reporter gene expression can be used to increase INGAP expression to treat a disease state related to reduced islet cell function. Agents that cause a decrease in reporter gene expression can be used to decrease INGAP expression to treat a disease state related to hyperactivity of islet cells or a disease where reduced INGAP expression is desirable. Examples of such agents include, but are not limited to, PMA, LIF, interleukin-6, Oncostatin M, and ciliary neurotropic factor. Agents can be administered by any number of routes including, but not limited to, oral, intravenous, intramuscular, intra-arterial, intramedullary, intrathecal, intraventricular, transdermal, subcutaneous, intraperitoneal, intranasal, parenteral, topical, sublingual, rectal, or pancreatic duct retrograde perfusion. Agents for oral administration can be formulated using pharmaceutically acceptable carriers well known in the art in dosages suitable for oral administration. Such carriers enable the pharmaceutical compositions to be formulated as tablets, pills, dragees, capsules, liquids, gels, syrups, slurries, suspensions, and the like, for ingestion by the mammal. Agents for intravenous, intramuscular, intra-arterial, transdermal, and subcutaneous injections can be formulated using pharmaceutically acceptable carriers well known in the art in dosages suitable for injection into the mammal. Agents for intranasal, topical, and rectal administration can be formulated using pharmaceutically acceptable carriers well known in the art in dosages suitable for surface administration to the mammal. Mammals in need of an increase in INGAP expression include for example, mammals with diabetes mellitus, impaired glucose tolerance, impaired fasting glucose, hyperglycemia, obesity, and pancreatic insufficiency. Mammals in need of a decrease in INGAP expression include for example, mammals with hypoglycemia.

[0062]The following examples are offered by way of illustration and do not limit the invention disclosed herein.

Example 1

Hamster INGAP Genomic Sequence and Structure

[0063]The hamster INGAP genomic sequence and structure was determined by gene walking (Clontech) and DNA sequencing. Gene walking is a method for walking upstream toward a promoter or downstream in genomic DNA from a known sequence, such as cDNA. This method utilizes four uncloned, adapter-ligated genomic fragment libraries. The manufacturer's recommended protocol is followed with one notable exception; hamster genomic DNA was used to create the uncloned, adapter-ligated genomic fragment libraries.

[0064]To create uncloned, adapter ligated genomic fragment libraries, genomic DNA was purified from hamster cells. Four separate aliquots were thoroughly digested with PvuII, StuI, DraI, or EcoRV. Following digestion, inactivation of the restriction enzymes, and dephosphorylation, each separate pool of DNA fragments was ligated to an adapter, see FIG. 5. The adapter was phosphorylated to provide the requisite phosphate group for a ligation reaction. Also note that the 3-prime side of the short adapter contains an amine group to prevent the adapters from forming concatamers.

[0065]Two gene specific primers (GSP1 and GSP2) were designed for each region of known sequence (i.e., the exons of the INGAP gene). See FIG. 6 for fragment location and GSP1 and GSP2 location. The gene specific primers were designed as reverse PCR primers for all fragments except fragments 1_--2 and 14_--5. The gene specific primers for fragments 1_--2 and 14_--5 were designed as forward primers. Adapter primer 1 (AP1) and adapter primer 2 (AP2) (FIG. 5) were forward PCR primers for all fragments except fragments 1_--2 and 14_--5, which were reverse PCR primers. The outer gene specific primer (GSP1) was used with adapter primer 1 in a PCR reaction. To increase specificity, a second, nested PCR was set up using the inner gene specific primer (GSP2) and adapter primer 2. A small aliquot of the first reaction served as template for the second reaction.

[0066]The PCR fragments were sequenced to determine the nucleotide sequence of the INGAP 5'-regulatory region, the introns, the intron/exon junctions, and the 3-prime polyadenylation regions. The nucleotide sequence of hamster INGAP genomic DNA is shown in SEQ ID NO: 2.

Example 2

Cloning Hamster INGAP 5'-Regulatory Region Fragment into a Reporter Construct

[0067]To construct the INGAP 5'-regulatory region, individual PCR fragments were joined together at unique restriction sites located within two adjoining fragments. FIGS. 6 and 7 detail the strategy used to piece the INGAP 5'-regulatory region together. Fragments 8_--3 and 2_--3 were joined at a unique SphI site; 14_--3 and 8_--3 were joined at a unique BbsI site; 16_--3 and 14_--3 were joined at a unique PstI site. The nucleotide sequence of hamster INGAP 5'-regulatory region DNA is shown in SEQ D NO: 1 and 23 in the sequence listing.

[0068]The hamster INGAP 5'-regulatory region or a fragment of the 5'-regulatory region was cloned into a reporter plasmid, pβGal-Basic (Clontech). The 5'-regulatory region or fragments were cloned utilizing the unique XmaI site from the gene walking adapter primer and a unique BglII site located at the 3-prime side of the regulatory region. FIG. 8 details the fragments cloned into pβGal-Basic. The sizes of the fragments are indicated to the right of the fragments and are expressed as the number of nucleotides of the fragment.

Example 3

Assay System to Screen for Factors that Modulate the Expression of INGAP

[0069]Promoter analysis of INGAP identified a number of potential promoter-proximal regulatory sites including the consensus transcription factor binding sites; cAMP response element (CRE), AP-1 and STAT. Promoter-fragment reporter-gene constructs were transiently transfected into 293T cells and co-transfection of secretory alkaline phosphatase was used to normalize for transfection efficiency.

[0070]Reporter constructs containing INGAP 5'-regulatory region fragments 2_--3sP (SEQ ID NO: 37), 2_--3dP (SEQ ID NO: 38), 2_--3pP (SEQ ID NO: 36), 14_--3P (SEQ ID NO: 34), 16_--3P (SEQ ID NO: 31), or 19_--3P (SEQ 11D NO: 23) were transfected into human cells. The pβGal-Basic plasmid without the hamster INGAP DNA was also transfected into human cells as a control to measure the level of endogenous reporter activity. Two days following transfection, the cells were treated with PMA for 24 hours or were untreated. To determine the level of promoter activity, the amount of β-galactosidase gene product was determined using a luminescent assay for β-galactosidase. FIG. 9A shows that construct 14_--3P activated the INGAP expression the most, followed by 2_--3pP, and 16_--3P.

[0071]Reporter construct containing INGAP 5'-regulatory region DNA nucleotides 2030 to 3120 was transfected into human cells. The pβGal-Basic plasmid without the hamster INGAP DNA was also transfected into human cells as a control to measure the level of endogenous reporter activity. Two days following transfection, the cells were treated with LIF for 24 hours or were untreated. To determine the level of promoter activity, the amount of β-galactosidase gene product was determined using a luminescent assay for β-galactosidase. FIG. 9B shows the results. LIF was determined to increase the activity of the 5'-regulatory region of mammalian INGAP. Forskolin (an activator of cAMP/CREB/CRE) did not modulate gene expression (data not shown).

[0072]It is important to note that when present in human cells, the hamster INGAP 5'-regulatory region is transactivated by the human transcription factors. Thus, linked to a reporter gene, the 5'-regulatory region of hamster INGAP creates a sensitive assay system to screen for factors that modulate the expression of INGAP.

Example 4

Determination of Approximate Location of PMA and LIF-Mediated Transcription Factor Binding in the 5'-Regulatory Region

[0073]To map the approximate location of PMA-initiated or LIF-initiated transcription factor binding different fragments of the hamster INGAP 5'-regulatory region were cloned into pβGal-Basic. See FIG. 8. The fragments cloned into the reporter construct were 2_--3sP (SEQ ID NO: 37), 2_--3dP (SEQ ID NO: 38), 2_--3pP (SEQ ID NO: 36), 14_--3P (SEQ ID NO: 34), 16_--3P (SEQ ID NO: 31), or 19_--3P (SEQ ID NO: 23). The reporter constructs were transfected into human cells. Two days following transfection, the cells were treated with different concentrations of PMA or LIF for 24 hours. The concentrations of PMA used were 6 ng/ml, 17 ng/ml, 50 ng/ml, 100 ng/ml, or 300 ng/ml. The concentrations of LIF used were 1 ng/ml, 10 ng/ml, or 30 ng/ml. To determine the level of promoter activity, the amount of β-galactosidase gene product was determined using a luminescent assay for β-galactosidase. FIGS. 10 and 11 show the results for PMA and LIF treatment, respectively. Both PMA and LIF activated the cell reporter constructs. The exact location of the DNA contact sites can be narrowed further by cloning smaller fragments of the hamster INGAP 5'-regulatory region and by site directed mutations or deletions.

Example 5

RNA Analysis of INGAP Gene Upregulation

[0074]To determine if INGAP RNA levels increase after stimulation with a cytokine that signals through STAT, rat amphocrine pancreatic cells, AR42J were treated with IL-6 (1000 U/ml) for 24 hours. Total RNA was extracted from the treated and untreated cells using techniques well known in the art, e.g., using TRI_ZOL® reagent.

[0075]Equal amounts of total RNA (10 μg) were loaded in 2.5% formaldehyde gel and electrophoresed for 4 hours at 70V with a constant circulation of the buffer using a circulating pump. The gel was photographed and washed with water twice at room temperature and soaked in 20×SSC. The gel was transferred to a nylon membrane (Amersham) in 20×SSC overnight following a standard procedure. The membrane was washed with 20×SSC to remove any agar that might have attached to the membrane and baked for 4 hours at 80° C.

[0076]One hundred nanograms of hamster INGAP cDNA was labeled using Random Prime Labeling kit (Roche-BMB) and alpha-P³² dCTP (ICN). Approximately 20 million counts were used for hybridization in 20 ml hybridization buffer following the standard procedure at 42° C. for overnight. The blot was washed as follows: 2-times at room temperature with 2×SSC for 10 minutes each; 2-times at 42° C. with 2×SSC for 10 minutes each; 2-times at 55° C. with 1×SSC for 10 minutes each. The membrane was exposed to the film (XOMAT-Kodak) and kept at -80° C. overnight before developing.

[0077]Treatment with IL-6 caused an increase in INGAP gene expression (FIG. 12). These data demonstrate that extracellular factors that elevate AP-1-binding transcription factors and STAT-binding transcription factors are involved in the regulation of INGAP gene expression. These studies suggest that it is feasible to enhance INGAP expression as a means of inducing islet neogenesis.

[0078]While particular embodiments of the present invention have been illustrated and described, it would be obvious to those skilled in the art that various other changes and modifications can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. It is therefore intended to cover in the appended claims all such changes and modifications that are within the scope of this invention.

Claims

1. A method for identifying agents which modulate INGAP expression, comprising:contacting a host cell comprising a reporter construct having at least one INGAP regulatory region and a region encoding a detectable product with a test agent;determining expression of the detectable product in the cell; and identifying the test agent as a modulator of INGAP expression if the test agent modulates expression of the detectable product in the cell.

2. The method of claim 1 wherein the regulatory region nucleotide sequence comprises of one or more regions chosen from nucleotides from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 1, 2, 23, 32, 35, 37, 28, 24, 25, 26, 27, 29, 30, 31, 33, 34, 38, and 36.

3. The method of claim 6 wherein the regulatory sequence comprises nucleotide sequences 1-3137 of SEQ ID NO: 2

4. The method of claim 2 wherein the reporter construct, further comprises: a promoter element interposed between the regulatory region nucleotide sequence and the nucleotide sequence encoding the detectable product.

5. The method of claim 4 wherein the promoter element is selected from SEQ ID NO: 2.

6. An in vitro method for identifying agents which modulate INGAP expression, comprising: a. contacting a reporter construct having at least one INGAP regulatory region and a region encoding a detectable product with a test substance under conditions sufficient for transcription and translation of said nucleotide sequence; determining expression of the detectable protein or nucleic acid product; and identifying the test substance as a modulator of INGAP expression if the test substance modulates expression of the detectable product.

7. The method of claim 6 wherein the regulatory region nucleotide sequence comprises of one or more regions chosen from nucleotides from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 1, 2, 23, 32, 35, 37, 28, 24, 25, 26, 27, 29, 30, 31, 33, 34, 38, and 36.

8. The method of claim 7 wherein the regulatory sequence comprises nucleotide sequences 1-3137 of SEQ ID NO: 2

9. The method of claim 6 wherein the reporter construct, further comprises: a promoter element interposed between the regulatory region nucleotide sequence and the nucleotide sequence encoding the detectable product.

10. The reporter construct of claim 9 wherein the promoter element is selected from SEQ ID NO: 2.

11. An in vitro method for identifying agents which modulate INGAP expression, comprising: contacting the SEQ ID NOS 1, 2, 23, 32, 35, 37, 28, 24, 25, 26, 27, 29, 30, 31, 33, 34, 38, and 36 or fragments thereof with a test agent; determining binding of the test agent to the nucleic acid; and identifying the test agent as a potential modulator of INGAP expression if the test agent binds to the nucleic acid.

12. The method of claim 11 wherein the sequence comprises nucleotide sequences 1-3137 of SEQ ID NO: 2

13. A method for inducing INGAP expression in a mammal in need thereof, comprising administering to the mammal an effective amount of a factor that stimulates INGAP expression in the said mammal.

14. The method of claim 13 wherein the factor that stimulates INGAP expression was identified by the methods of claim 1.

15. The method of claim 14 wherein the factor that stimulates INGAP expression was identified by the methods of claim 11.

16. The method of claim 13 wherein the factor that stimulates INGAP expression is selected from hLIF or PMA
