    Glucocorticoid use is associated with steroid-induced diabetes mellitus and impaired pancreatic β-cell insulin secretion. Here, the glucocorticoid-mediated transcriptomic changes in human pancreatic islets and the human insulin-secreting EndoC-βH1 cells were investigated to uncover genes involved in β-cell steroid stress-response processes. Bioinformatics analysis revealed glucocorticoids to exert their effects mainly on enhancer genomic regions in collaboration with auxiliary transcription factor families including AP-1, ETS/TEAD, and FOX. Remarkably, we identified the transcription factor <i>ZBTB16</i> as a highly confident direct glucocorticoid target. Glucocorticoid-mediated induction of <i>ZBTB16</i> was time- and dose-dependent. Manipulation of <i>ZBTB16</i> expression in EndoC-βH1 cells combined with dexamethasone treatment demonstrated its protective role against glucocorticoid-induced reduction of insulin secretion and mitochondrial function impairment. In conclusion, we determine the molecular impact of glucocorticoids on human islets and insulin-secreting cells and investigate the effects of glucocorticoid targets on β-cell function. Our findings can pave the way for therapies against steroid-induced diabetes mellitus.
