Prostaglandin E2 inhibits phosphoinositide metabolism in isolated pancreatic islets.
Isolated islets of the rat labelled with myo-[3H]inositol showed decreased accumulation of total inositol phosphates (InsPs) and [3H]polyphosphoinositide hydrolysis in response to glucose after preincubation with prostaglandin E2 (PGE2). The response was concentration-dependent and specific for PGE2. PGE2 did not affect basal [3H]phosphoinositide hydrolysis or InsPs accumulation. Pertussis-toxi...
متن کاملInositol cycling and phosphoinositide metabolism in rat pancreatic islets.
The effects of extracellular inositol and LiCl on intra-islet inositol cycling were investigated in isolated rat islets. Islets were cultured for 7 days in inositol-free RPMI 1640 containing 11.1 mM glucose and labeled with 3.7 MBq myo-[2-3H] inositol for the final 3 days. The labeled islets were then perifused under various conditions. There was a persistent increase in [3H] efflux from labele...
متن کاملTacrolimus Inhibits the Revascularization of Isolated Pancreatic Islets
AIMS Immunosuppressive drugs could be crucial factors for a poor outcome after islet allotransplantation. Unlike rapamycin, the effects of tacrolimus, the current standard immunosuppressant used in islet transplantation, on graft revascularization remain unclear. We examined the effects of tacrolimus on islet revascularization using a highly sensitive imaging system, and analyzed the gene expre...
متن کاملIsolated Pancreatic Islets
It is the aim of this study to characterize and quantify the cells within isolated rat islets that express MHC class 11 antigens. A set of five monoelonal antibodies and two polyclonal antisera of defined specificlty were used in combination with a newly devised procedure for three·dimensional immunofluorescence evaluation of intact islets. It is shown that in addition to passen· ger cells, suc...
متن کاملIsolated Mouse Pancreatic Islets
Inosine is a potent primary stimulus of insulin secretion from isolated mouse islets. The inosine-induced insulin secretion was totally depressed during starvation, but was completely restored by the addition of 5mmi-caffeine to the medium and partially restored by the addition of 5mM-glucose. Mannoheptulose (3mg/ml) potentiated the eflect of lOmM-inosine in islets from fed mice. The mechanism ...
