Stress-inducible transcription factor ATF4 is essential for survival and identity of β-cell during stress conditions. However, the physiological role of ATF4 in β-cell function is not yet completely understood. To understand the role of ATF4 in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS), β-cell-specific Atf4 knockout (βAtf4KO) mice were phenotypically characterized. Insulin secretion and mechanistic analyses were performed using islets from control Atf4f/f and βAtf4KO mice to assess key regulators for triggering and amplifying signals for GSIS. βAtf4KO mice displayed glucose intolerance due to reduced insulin secretion. Moreover, βAtf4KO islets exhibited a decrease in both the insulin content and first-phase insulin secretion. The analysis of βAtf4KO islets showed that ATF4 is required for insulin production and glucose-stimulated ATP and cAMP production. The results demonstrate that ATF4 contributes to the multifaceted regulatory process in GSIS even under stress-free conditions.
