Effect of estradiol on insulin secreting INS-1 cells overexpressing estrogen receptors.
BACKGROUND Estrogen has been shown to have profound effects on insulin and glucose metabolism in vivo. Indeed, estrogens were recently shown to modulate ion channel and secretory activities in endocrine cells. DESIGN AND METHODS To investigate whether estrogenic influences are caused by direct effects on pancreatic beta-cells, we equipped INS-1 insulinoma cells with estrogen receptors and mon...
متن کاملCalcium increases endocytotic vesicle size and accelerates membrane fission in insulin-secreting INS-1 cells.
In many cells, endocytotic membrane retrieval is accelerated by Ca2+. The effect of Ca2+ on single endocytotic vesicles and fission pore kinetics was examined by measuring capacitance and conductance changes in small membrane patches of insulin-secreting INS-1 cells. In intact cells, elevation of Ca2+ by glucose stimulation induced a 1.8-fold increase in membrane internalisation. This surprisin...
متن کاملdifferentiation of human embryonic stem cells into insulin- secreting cells
introduction: type i diabetes mellitus is caused by autoimmune destruction of the insulin-producing β-cells. a new potential method for curing the disease is transplantation of differentiated insulin- secreting cells from human embryonic stem cells. methods: human embryonic stem cell lines (royan h1) were used to produce embryoid bodies. differentiation carried out by growth factor-mediated sel...
متن کاملIGF-1 protects against dexamethasone-induced cell death in insulin secreting INS-1 cells independent of AKT/PKB phosphorylation.
Appropriate insulin secretion depends on beta-cell mass that is determined by the balance between cell proliferation and death. IGF-1 stimulates proliferation and protects against apoptosis. In contrast, glucocorticoids promote cell death. In this study we examined molecular interactions of the glucocorticoid dexamethasone (dexa) with IGF-1 signalling pathways in insulin secreting INS-1 cells. ...
متن کاملThe role of noggin in regulation of high glucose-induced apoptosis and insulin secretion in INS-1 rat beta cells
Objective(s):The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of Noggin on high glucose-induced apoptosis and insulin secretion in pancreatic beta cells. Materials and Methods: Different concentrations of glucose were used to examine their effects on INS-1 rat beta cells in vitro. When specific siRNA targeting Noggin and recombinant Noggin were added, apoptosis and insulin secretion wer...
