How do the new insulin secretagogues compare?
The availability of diabetes drugs with new properties in the last several years has prompted excitement about potential new and unique advantages for diabetes care. That has certainly been the case with the new insulin secretagogues, repaglinide and nateglinide, which have earlier onset and shorter duration of action than the sulfonylureas. The niche that insulin secretagogues occupy brings un...
متن کاملExocytosis in mast cells by basic secretagogues: evidence for direct activation of GTP-binding proteins
Histamine release induced by the introduction of a nonhydrolyzable analogue of GTP, GTP-gamma-S, into ATP-permeabilized mast cells, is associated with phosphoinositide breakdown, as evidenced by the production of phosphatidic acid (PA) in a neomycin-sensitive process. The dependency of both PA formation and histamine secretion on GTP-gamma-S concentrations is bell shaped. Whereas concentrations...
متن کاملHow mast cells make decisions.
Mast cells (MCs) are present in various tissues and are responsible for initiating many of the early inflammatory responses to extrinsic challenges. Recent studies have demonstrated that MCs can tailor their responses, depending on the stimulus encountered and the tissue in which they are stimulated. In this issue of the JCI, Gaudenzio and colleagues examine the mechanistic differences between ...
متن کاملSecretagogues differentially activate endoplasmic reticulum stress responses in pancreatic acinar cells.
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress leads to the accumulation of misfolded proteins in the ER lumen and initiates the unfolded protein response (UPR). Components of the UPR are important in pancreatic development, and recent studies have indicated that the UPR is activated in the arginine model of acute pancreatitis. However, the effects of secretagogues on UPR components in the pancreas are unkn...
متن کاملDo mast cells link obesity and asthma?
Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the lungs. Both the number of cases and severity of asthma have been increasing without a clear explanation. Recent evidence suggests that obesity, which has also been increasing alarmingly, may worsen or precipitate asthma, but there is little evidence of how obesity may contribute to lung inflammation. We propose that mast cells are involved in both...
