Islet blood flow was quantified in NIDDM rats either of the GK strain on after neonatal injection of STZ (n0-STZ), using the non-radioactive microsphere technique. In the basal state, there was a good correlation between plasma insulin level and islet blood flow, i.e. both were increased or decrease
Isolated pancreatic islets of normoglycemic sand rats do not respond to 2.5 mM glucose with an enhanced glucagon secretion, which could be observed in normal Wistar rats. Arginine stimulates glucagon release in the presence of 2.5 mM glucose in Wistar rats as well as in sand rats. The secretion patt
