## Abstract Hyperlipidemia is frequently associated with insulin resistance states as found in type 2 diabetes and obesity. Effects of free fatty acids (FFA) on pancreatic β‐cells have long been recognized. Acute exposure of the pancreatic β‐cell to FFA results in an increase of insulin release, wh
ATP-inhibited potassium channels (K(ATP)) were studied in excised, inside-out patches from cultured adult mouse pancreatic beta-cells and HIT cells. In the absence of ATP, ADP opened K(ATP) channels at concentrations as low as 10 microM and as high as 500 microM, with maximal activation between 10 a
The effects of suramin, reactive blue 2 (RB2) and d-tubocurarine (d-TC) were investigated electrophysiologically to elucidate the mechanisms underlying their antagonism of P2 purinoceptor-mediated responses. All three compounds inhibited an adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-activated inward current in ra
