Objective of this study was to characterize osmotically-induced insulin secretion in two tumor cell lines. We compared response of freshly isolated rat pancreatic islets and INS-1 and INS-1E tumor cell lines to high glucose, 30 % hypotonic medium and 20 % hypertonic medium. In Ca(2+)-containing medium glucose induced insulin release in all three cell types. Hypotonicity induced insulin secretion from islets and INS-1 cells but not from INS-1E cells, in which secretion was inhibited despite similar increase in cell volume in both cell types. GdCl(3) (100 micromol/l) did not affect insulin response from INS-1E cells to hypotonic challenge. Hypertonic medium inhibited glucose-induced insulin secretion from islets but not from tumor cells. Noradrenaline (1 micromol/l) inhibited glucose-induced but not swelling-induced insulin secretion from INS-1 cells. Surprisingly, perifusion with Ca(2+)-depleted medium showed distinct secretory response of INS-1E cells to hypotonicity while that of INS-1 cells was partially inhibited. Functioning glucose-induced insulin secretion is not sufficient prerequisite for hypotonicity-induced response in INS-1E cells suggesting that swelling-induced exocytosis is not essential step in the mechanism mediating glucose-induced insulin secretion. Both cell lines are resistant to inhibitory effect of hyperosmolarity on glucose-induced insulin secretion. Response of INS-1E cells to hypotonicity is inhibited by the presence of Ca(2+) in medium. 相似文献

The endocrine cells in the pancreatic islet have cellular communication between the heterotypic cells as well as the homotypic cells. The present study was conducted to elucidate the cellular interaction between pancreatic alpha cells and beta cells utilizing differentiated mouse cell lines (i.e., alphaTC clone 6 and betaTC cells). Co-culture of these two cell lines on a gyratory shaker generated numerous cellular aggregates of homogenous size within 48 h. Immunohistochemical staining for insulin and glucagon demonstrated that betaTC cells were located in the central core of each aggregate, while alphaTC cells formed a mantle layer surrounding the betaTC cells. This segregation was observed regardless of the ratios of the two cell types employed. Although glucagon at concentrations of 10(-8) M or higher stimulated insulin secretion from betaTC cells in both monolayer and aggregates, an increase in the ratio of alphaTC/betaTC cells in aggregate cultures was accompanied by a decrease in secreted insulin and a rise in intracellular insulin content of the betaTC component. The inhibitory effect of alphaTC cells on betaTC insulin secretion was not limited to aggregate culture, since insulin secretion from betaTC cells was also suppressed, and intracellular insulin content increased, by co-culture of alphaTC with betaTC cells in monolayer. On the other hand, the secreted and intracellular insulin of betaTC cells was not affected by alphaTC cells in a Transwell co-culture system in which direct cell-to-cell contacts were prevented by a semipermeable membrane that permitted chemical communication via medium metabolites. These data suggest that the insulin secretion from betaTC cells may be inhibited possibly as a result of the contact with alphaTC cells. 相似文献

The objective of the present study was to determine the effects of insulin on amphibian hepatocytes in primary culture. Hepatocytes were isolated from adult bullfrogs by collagenase perfusion and maintained as monolayers in serum-free medium. Cells cultured in the continuous presence of insulin exhibited a relatively constant rate of protein secretion over the first four to five days, whereas controls showed an almost three-fold decrease over the same time period. The decline in secreted proteins was equally represented in most exported proteins, except that serum albumin secretion showed twice as much of a decrease relative to the other proteins. The maintenance of protein secretion by insulin was the result of its effect on protein synthesis. The rate of protein synthesis was measured by the incorporation of (3H)-leucine into protein using culture medium containing 0.5 mM leucine, a condition where the specific radioactivity of leucyl-tRNA was shown to be equal to that of (3H)-leucine in the medium. Cultures maintained with insulin for 60 hours synthesized protein at two to three times the rate found in non-insulin treated controls whose rate of protein synthesis was first detectably decreased after nine hours of culture in the insulin-free medium. Sedimentation profiles of polyribosomes from hepatocytes maintained for 60 hours without insulin showed proportionately fewer ribosomes in large polysomes and more in monosomes and free ribosomal subunits than ribosomes from cells cultured with insulin. This result suggests that the decrease in protein synthesis found in the absence of insulin is due to a defect in initiation. Insulin does not exert its effect by regulating cellular levels of ATP; no change in ATP content was found in cells maintained with or without insulin. The results show that insulin maintains high levels of protein synthesis and secretion in amphibian hepatocytes. The hepatocytes in monlayer culture provide a system to study the molecular mechanisms involved in the translational control of protein synthesis by insulin. 相似文献

Long-term exposure of the pancreatic beta cells to free fatty acid (FFA) reportedly inhibits glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. We here studied the impact of FFA on glucose and lipid metabolism in pancreatic beta cells with special reference to insulin secretion. Pancreatic beta-cell line MIN6 was exposed to various concentrations of palmitate for 3 days. Glucose-stimulated insulin secretion and insulin content were decreased corresponding to the concentration of the palmitate exposed. Glycolytic flux and ATP synthesis was unchanged, but pyruvate-stimulated change in NAD(P)H concentration was decreased. Pyruvate carboxylase was decreased at the protein level, which was restored by the removal of palmitate or the inhibition of beta-oxidation. Intracellular content of triglyceride and FFA were elevated, beta-oxidation was increased, and de novo lipogenesis from glucose was decreased. NADPH content and citrate output into the medium, which reflected pyruvate malate shuttle flux, were decreased, but malic enzyme activity was unaffected. The malic enzyme inhibitor alone inhibited insulin response to glucose. In conclusion, long-term exposure of FFA to beta cells inhibits glucose-stimulated insulin secretion via the decreased NADPH contents due to the inhibition of pyruvate carboxylase and malate pyruvate shuttle flux. 相似文献

A monolayer culture system was developed to study the role of microtubules in insulin secretion. Cultured cells were obtained to study the role of microtubules in insulin secretion. Cultured cells were obtained by enzymatic digestion of pancreases from C57BL-KsJ mice 6-12 wk of age. On day 4 of culture, the medium was changed, control or treatment medium added, and frequent samples were removed for insulin assay. Microtubules and beta cells were identified by indirect immunofluorescence with monospecific antibodies to tubulin and insulin. An extensive microtubule network radiates from the perinuclear region of the beta cell to the plasma membrane. Although alterations in the calcium concentration of the medium did not affect the microtubule pattern, the absence of calcium or glucose in the medium inhibited insulin secretion (P less than 0.001). Optimum insulin release occurred at a calcium concentration of 2.5 mM. Colchicine, in concentrations of 10(-10) M, did not affect the microtubule immunofluorescent pattern, whereas concentrations of 1 and 5 x 10(-7) M decreased the number of microtubules, and microtubules could not be identified in cultures treated with 10(-6) M colchicine for 2 h. After a 2-h preincubation, the prolonged release of insulin at either 2.0 or 4.5 mg/ml of glucose was decreased by 10(-6) M colchicine (P less than 0.02). The immediate release of insulin was similar to that in control plates and occurred in cultures with no identifiable microtubules. Microtubules and insulin secretion were not altered by 10(-6) M lumicolchicine and prolonged insulin secretion recovered 24 h after removal of colchicine. These studies show that the microtubules facilitate sustained secretion of insulin but are not required for the immediate release of the hormone. Alterations in the extracellular calcium concentration which play an essential role in insulin secretion do not alter the microtubule pattern in the beta cell. 相似文献

The data are presented as to prolactin and ACTH secretion by rat adenohypophysis cells and insulin secretion by pancreatic beta-cells of the newborn rats during cell cultivation on flat synthetic membranes with pores differing in diameter under continuous medium perfusion. The cultured cells were discovered to be viable and to possess secretory activity. Secretion of prolactin and ACTH and that of insulin in the appropriate cultures increases in the course of long-term incubation under continuous medium perfusion. It is concluded that application of the porous membranes enables a selective study of the release of one or another hormone into the medium. It is believed that cultivation of hormone-secreting and hormone-susceptible cells under closed- and unclosed-type nutrient medium perfusion is fairly promising. 相似文献

We examined the effect of oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) on the insulin secretion in the culture of HIT-T15 cell line, an islet beta-cell line derived from a hamster pancreatic tumor. In order to check the uptake of modified LDL by HIT-T15 cells, we prepared DiI-labeled native LDL (nLDL), acetylated LDL (AcLDL), and oxLDL. After the addition of each LDL into the cultures of HIT-T15 cells, fluorescence microscopic study was done. It was suggested that AcLDL and oxLDL were taken up by HIT-T15 cells, as well as nLDL. mRNA expression of the LDL receptor, CD36, and SR-B1 was detected in HIT-T15 by RT-PCR. The medium insulin level was measured in the culture of HIT-T15 cells with each LDL. oxLDL significantly reduced the insulin secretion stimulated by various concentrations of glucose, the intracellular content of insulin, and the expression of preproinsulin mRNA compared to the control cultures without LDL addition. In contrast, nLDL and AcLDL had no effect on the insulin secretion, the intracellular insulin level, or the expression of preproinsulin mRNA. MTT assay findings (reflecting cell numbers) were not different between cultures with and without LDLs. These results indicated that oxLDL disturbed the insulin metabolism of HIT-T15 cells. 相似文献

Secretion of lipids, apolipoproteins, and lipoproteins by human hepatoma cell line, HepG2: effects of oleic acid and insulin 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
The aim of this study was to determine the effect of oleic acid and insulin on the secretion of lipoproteins by HepG2 cells grown in minimum essential medium. Triglycerides were the major neutral lipid (57% of total) and apoB was the predominant apolipoprotein (56% of total) secreted by these cells. The addition of oleate resulted in a two-fold increase in the concentration of neutral lipids but only a slight to moderate increase in the apolipoprotein (A-I, A-II, B, and E) levels. The secretion of very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) was stimulated by 425%, low density lipoproteins (LDL) by 77%, and high density lipoproteins (HDL) by 68%. Whereas neutral lipid composition of LDL was unchanged, the VLDL particles contained a significantly higher percentage of triglyceride and lower percentages of cholesterol and cholesteryl esters compared with VLDL secreted in the absence of oleate. Oleate had no significant effect on the composition of apolipoproteins in VLDL, LDL and HDL. In basal medium, insulin caused a significant decrease in the secretion of neutral lipids and apolipoproteins, particularly triglycerides and apoB. In addition to a 60-68% reduction in the total concentration of VLDL and LDL, insulin altered their composition by producing particles that had a significantly lower content of triglycerides, contained less apoB, and were deficient in apoE. There were no major changes in the concentration or composition of HDL particles. Insulin had a similar but less pronounced effect on the concentration and composition of lipoproteins secreted in the presence of oleate. The increased accumulation of triglycerides in the HepG2 cells concomitant with their reduced levels in the medium suggests that insulin may affect the secretion rather than synthesis of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: It has been reported that macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) stimulated insulin secretion from pancreatic islet beta-cells in an autocrine manner, which suggests its pivotal role in the glucose metabolism. According to this finding, we evaluated MIF expression in cultured adipocytes and epididymal fat pads of obese and diabetic rats to investigate its role in adipose tissue. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The murine adipocyte cell line 3T3-L1 was used to examine MIF mRNA expression and production of MIF protein in response to various concentrations of glucose and insulin. Epididymal fat pads of Otsuka Long-Evans Tokushima fatty (OLETF) and Wistar fatty rats, animal models of obesity and diabetes, were subjected to Northern blot analysis to determine MIF mRNA levels. RESULTS: MIF mRNA of 3T3-L1 adipocytes was up-regulated by costimulation with glucose and insulin. Intracellular MIF content was significantly increased by stimulation, whereas its content in the culture medium was decreased. When the cells were treated with cytochalasin B, MIF secretion in the medium was increased. Pioglitazone significantly increased MIF content in the culture medium of 3T3-L1 cells. However, MIF mRNA expression of both epididymal fat pads of OLETF and Wistar fatty rats was down-regulated despite a high plasma glucose level. The plasma MIF level of Wistar fatty rats was significantly increased by treatment with pioglitazone. CONCLUSION: We show here that the intracellular glucose level is critical to determining the MIF mRNA level as well as its protein content in adipose tissue. MIF is known to play an important role in glucose metabolism as a positive regulator of insulin secretion. In this context, it is conceivable that MIF may affect the pathophysiology of obesity and diabetes. 相似文献

The effects of dexamethasone (Dex) on insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I and IGF binding protein (IGFBP)-1 production were investigated in primary cultures of rat hepatocytes. Dex enhanced the secretion of IGFBP-1 as measured by ligand blot analysis but did not show any prominent effect on immunoreactive IGF-I secretion. EC50 of Dex on IGFBP-1 secretion was calculated to be 3 x 10(-8) M. The content of IGFBP-1 mRNA in the cells increased greatly in the presence of Dex but the IGF-I mRNA content did not change significantly under the same conditions. Insulin showed the opposite effect of Dex by decreasing the production of IGFBP-1 and the cellular content of IGFBP-1 mRNA. This effect of insulin was observed also with Dex in the medium. These results show that the gene expression of IGF-I and IGFBP-1 is differently regulated by glucocorticoids and insulin in primary cultures of rat hepatocytes. The results most possibly explain the in vivo effects of glucocorticoids and insulin in regulation of IGF-I and IGFBP-1 production by liver. 相似文献

High rates of hepatic cellular triacylglycerol synthesis and very-low-density-lipoprotein (VLDL) triacylglycerol output were maintained in vitro for at least 3 days when hepatocytes were cultured in a medium lacking insulin but supplemented with 1 microM-dexamethasone, 10 mM-lactate, 1 mM-pyruvate and 0.75 mM-oleate (supplemented medium). Under these conditions VLDL output remained constant, whereas cell triacyglycerol content increased 10-fold over 3 days, suggesting that the secretory process was saturated. Insulin, present during the first 24 h period, enhanced the storage of cellular triacylglycerol by inhibiting the secretion of VLDL. This stored triacyglycerol was subsequently released into the medium as VLDL if insulin was removed. With the supplemented medium the increased rate of VLDL secretion after insulin removal exceeded that observed under 'saturating' conditions, suggesting that pre-treatment with insulin enhanced the capacity for VLDL secretion. In contrast with the short-term (24 h) effects of insulin, longer-term exposure (greater than 48 h) to insulin enhanced the secretion of VLDL compared with insulin-untreated cultures. Under these conditions, insulin increased the net rates of triacylglycerol synthesis. The results suggest that insulin affects the secretion of VLDL triacylglycerol by two distinct and opposing mechanisms: first, by direct inhibition of secretion; second by increasing triacylglycerol synthesis, which stimulates secretion. The net effect at any time depends upon the relative importance of each of these processes. 相似文献

Amino acid transport and [14C]leucine incorporation into liver proteins as well as the secretion of proteins into incubation medium were studied in liver cells isolated from coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) parr. Pink salmon (Oncorhynchus gorbuscha) or mammalian (bovine) insulin caused a significant increase in TCA-precipitable radioactivity from both cells and incubation medium. The effects appeared at insulin concentration of 10(-8) M with a maximal response at 5 X 10(-8) M. The radioactivity of the TCA-soluble fraction was not changed by insulin. Insulin increased the amount of the non-metabolized amino acid [14C]cycloleucine, in the TCA-soluble fraction of hepatocytes. The glycogen content of hepatocytes was increased in the presence of insulin at 10(-9) M but was not changed from the control value in the presence of insulin at 10(-8) M. 相似文献

Chromium supplementation has been proposed to promote the action of insulin and the lowering of blood glucose levels in diabetic patients. However, the molecular mechanism by which chromium increases insulin sensitivity is not known. Using U937 monocytes as a cell culture model, this study demonstrates that chromium inhibits the secretion of TNF-alpha, a cytokine known to inhibit the sensitivity and action of insulin. U937 cells were cultured with high levels of glucose (mimicking diabetes) in the presence or absence of chromium chloride in the medium at 37 degrees C for 24 h. This study demonstrates that chromium supplementation prevents the increase in TNF-alpha levels and oxidative stress caused by the high levels of glucose in cultured U937 monocytic cells. Similarly, chromium supplementation prevented elevated TNF-alpha secretion and lipid peroxidation levels in H(2)O(2)-treated U937 cells. This study demonstrates for the first time that chromium supplementation inhibits TNF-alpha secretion in U937 monocytes cultured in high-glucose medium, which appears to be mediated by its antioxidative effect. This provides evidence for a novel molecular mechanism by which chromium supplementation may increase insulin sensitivity and glycemic control in diabetic patients. 相似文献

In the present study, we successfully isolated PDMSCs from human placental tissues. The RT-PCR results show that PDMSCs preserved the genetic characteristics of the primitive embryonic stage--Oct-4 and Nanog. By using serum-free medium supplemented essential growth factors and induction medium culture for 4 weeks, a monolayer of spindle-like PDMSCs gradually formed 3D spheroid bodies (SB-PDMSCs). By using real-time RT-PCR, early mRNA expressions of Pdx1, as well as the Sox17 and Foxa2 genes, were observed to be significantly activated in SB-PDMSCs, followed by the expression of mature pancreas-related genes (insulin, glucagon, and somatostatin). The high insulin content of SB-PDMSCs was further confirmed by ELISA assay, and the glucose dependency was demonstrated by the corresponding insulin secretion level. In a transplantation study of streptozotocin-pretreated nude mice, the restoration of normoglycemia in the SB-PDMSC treated group was further observed. In conclusion, these results indicate that PDMSCs are an excellent source for the induced differentiation of well-functioning insulin-positive cells. The potential of these insulin producing cells derived from PDMSCs was also demonstrated functionally by the demonstration of secreted insulin in vitro and effective control of blood glucose levels in vivo. 相似文献

Rat hepatocytes in monolayer culture were preincubated for 19 h with 1 microM-dexamethasone, and the incubation was continued for a further 23 h with [14C]oleate, [3H]glycerol and 1 microM-dexamethasone. Dexamethasone increased the secretion of triacylglycerol into the medium in particles that had the properties of very-low-density lipoproteins. The increased secretion was matched by a decrease in the triacylglycerol and phosphatidylcholine that remained in the hepatocytes. Preincubating the hepatocytes for the total 42 h period with 36 nM-insulin decreased the amount of triacylglycerol in the medium and in the cells after the final incubation for 23 h with radioactive substrates. However, insulin had no significant effect on the triacylglycerol content of the cell and medium when it was present only in the final 23 h incubation. Insulin antagonized the effects of dexamethasone in stimulating the secretion of triacylglycerol from the hepatocytes, especially when it was present throughout the total 42 h period. The labelling of lysophosphatidylcholine in the medium when hepatocytes were incubated with [14C]oleate and [3H]glycerol was greater than that of phosphatidylcholine. The appearance of this lipid in the medium, unlike that of triacylglycerol and phosphatidylcholine, was not stimulated by dexamethasone, or inhibited by colchicine. However, the presence of lysophosphatidylcholine in the medium was decreased when the hepatocytes were incubated with both dexamethasone and insulin. These findings are discussed in relation to the control of the synthesis of glycerolipids and the secretion of very-low-density lipoproteins and lysophosphatidylcholine by the liver, particularly in relation to the interactions of glucocorticoids and insulin. 相似文献

Secretion of insulin could be stimulated by several ways. Comparison of glucose- and swelling-induced mechanisms in pancreatic
islets revealed the involvement of a novel signal transduction pathway with specific features of osmotically stimulated peptide
hormone release including Ca2+ independence and resistance to noradrenalin (NA) inhibition. Cell swelling can be induced by hypotonicity or small permeant
molecules (e.g. ethanol, urea). Our experiments were aimed to compare the effect of these permeants on insulin secretion from
natural system — freshly isolated pancreatic islets and rat insulinoma cell lines INS-1 and INS-1E. As expected glucose and
both permeants (80 mM ethanol and urea in isosmotic medium) induced insulin release from islets and NA did not inhibit permeant-induced
secretion. Although ethanol and urea induced similar swelling of tumor cells, they produced opposite effect on insulin secretion;
while exposure to ethanol led to stimulation of insulin secretion, exposure to urea led to suppression in both types of neoplastic
cells. Surprisingly, stimulating effect of ethanol was completely suppressed by NA in both tumor cell lines. Ethanol in hyperosmotic
medium failed to stimulate and even inhibited insulin release from both tumor cell lines in present study indicating thus
involvement of an osmotic component. In conclusion, the opposite effect of ethanol and urea on insulin secretion from insulinoma
cells and sensitivity of ethanol stimulation to NA indicate utilization of different cellular signaling pathways in tumor
cells as compared to natural β-cells. Participation of permeant effect in the mechanism of ethanol stimulation remains to be clarified. 相似文献

The minced pancreas of the neonatal rat was cultured for 35 days in a pancreatic chamber which was constructed of a plastic tube and an ultrafiltration membrane. Insulin and amylase secreted from this pancreatic chamber into the culture medium were measured. During the experiment, the concentration of glucose in the culture medium was changed between 5.5 and 16.5 mM at 2-3 day intervals in order to determine the insulin secretory response of the pancreatic tissue. Insulin secretion was markedly increased in response to 16.5 mM glucose. The ratio of insulin secretion to amylase secretion in the culture medium increased with the advance of culture days although secretions of both insulin and amylase decreased individually. On the 7th culture day, short term incubations were performed to test with various insulin secretagogues; obvious insulin release into the incubation medium was observed. These results show that the pancreatic chamber also in vitro secretes insulin rapidly and significantly in response to various stimuli; that by longer culture of a neonatal rat pancreas in this device, insulin secretory cells without exocrine tissue would be obtained without using digestive enzymes; that application of a pancreatic chamber for a pancreatic transplantation may be feasible. 相似文献

Mice were subjected to gastrectomy (GX) or sham operation (controls). Four to six weeks later the pancreatic islets were isolated and analysed for cAMP or alternatively incubated in a Krebs-Ringer based medium in an effort to study insulin secretion and cAMP accumulation in response to glucose or the adenylate cyclase activator forskolin. Freshly isolated islets from GX mice had higher cAMP content than islets from control mice, a difference that persisted after incubation for 1 h at a glucose concentration of 4 mmol/l. Addition of forskolin to this medium induced much greater cAMP and insulin responses in islets from GX mice than in islets from control mice. In contrast, the insulin response to high glucose (16.7 mmol/l) was much weaker in GX islets than in control islets. Glucose-induced insulin release was associated with a 2-fold rise in the cAMP content in control islets. Surprisingly no rise in cAMP was noted in GX islets incubated at high glucose. Capacitance measurements conducted on isolated insulin cells from GX mice revealed a much lower exocytotic response to a single 500 ms depolarisation (from -70 mV to zero) than in control insulin cells. Addition of cAMP to the cytosol enhanced the exocytotic response in insulin cells from control mice but not from GX mice. The depolarisation-triggered inward Ca(2+) current in insulin cells from GX mice did not differ from that in control mice, and hence the reduced exocytotic response following GX cannot be ascribed to a decreased Ca(2+) influx. Experiments involving a train of ten 500 ms depolarisations revealed that the exocytotic response was prominent in control insulin cells but modest in GX insulin cells. It seems that cAMP is capable of eliciting insulin release from insulin cells of GX mice only when cAMP is generated in a specific microdomain conceivably through the intervention of membrane-associated adenylate cyclases that can be activated by forskolin. The GX-evoked impairment of depolarisation-induced exocytosis and glucose-stimulated insulin release may reflect the lack of a gastric agent that serves to maintain an appropriate insulin response to glucose and an appropriate exocytotic response to depolarisation by raising cAMP in a special glucose-sensitive compartment possibly regulated by a soluble adenylate cyclase. 相似文献

Slowly growing X-ray-induced rat insulinomas and derived cell lines have been used as a model system for glucose-induced insulin release. During perfusions of tumors transplanted under the kidney capsule, the carbohydrates glucose and D-glyceraldehyde increased insulin secretion. These stimuli and the amino acids leucine and alanine also provoked insulin release in freshly isolated tumor cells. Under these conditions, glucose utilization had a Km of 4.6 mM and maximal velocity of 0.9 nmol/min/10(6) cells. A continuous cell line was established from such a preparation. In culture, glucose-induced insulin secretion was no longer detectable while responses to D-glyceraldehyde and amino acids were retained. Glucose metabolism in the cell line showed a decrease in Km to 0.7 mM glucose and an increased maximal velocity of 1.4 nmol/min/10(6) cells. Attempts to revert these alterations were undertaken using glucose-deficient culture medium to diminish glycolytic flux. Basal insulin release was lowered, while the growth pattern of the cells remained unchanged. Another approach involved the use of sodium butyrate which has been demonstrated to promote differentiation in other cell systems. Whereas sodium butyrate markedly increased cellular insulin content, the secretory responses were not improved. These results provide evidence that the loss of glucose-induced insulin secretion is paralleled by alterations in glucose metabolism. 相似文献
