Insulin secretion and islet glucose metabolism were compared in pancreatic islets isolated from GK/Wistar (GK) rats with spontaneous Type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus and control Wistar rats. Islet insulin content was 24.5 +/- 3.1 microU/ng islet DNA in GK rats and 28.8 +/- 2.5 microU
The effect of interference with diacylglycerol metabolism was investigated in pancreatic mouse islets. In the presence of the diacylglycerol lipase inhibitor RHC 80267, glucose-induced insulin secretion was reduced 50-60%; whereas carbacholin-induced insulin secretion was unaffected. Addition of the
The effect of islet activating protein on glucose tolerance, insulin secretion and insulin responsiveness was studied in the NZO mouse, a model of non-insulin dependent diabetes and obesity. A single IV injection of 5 ng/g body weight islet activating protein markedly lowered plasma glucose and the
