MONOPHASIC STATE OF INSULIN SECRETION IN ISOLATED RAT ISLETS OF LANGERHANS BY K+, Ca2+ AND GLUCOSE
Isolation of rat islets of Langerhans was carried out by using collagenase and the destruction of exocrine tissue was performed through the injection of Hanks' solution into the common bile duct. The identification of the islets was done by techniques including the use of a stereomicroscope against a black background. Vital staining was done by an injection of neutral red solution through t...
متن کاملEffect of diabetes mellitus on the regulation of enzyme secretion by isolated rat pancreatic acini.
The nature and mechanism of the pancreatic exocrine dysfunction in diabetes mellitus were evaluated in vitro using isolated pancreatic acini prepared from streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. The content of amylase and ribonuclease in diabetic acini was approximately 0.5 and 50% of the normal content, respectively. Further, reduced amounts of both enzymes were secreted by diabetic acini in res...
متن کاملAquaporins in rat pancreatic interlobular ducts.
The aquaporin (AQP) family of water channels is distributed ubiquitously in many epithelia and plays a fundamental role in transmembrane water transport. The aim of this study is to identify the water transport pathway in pancreatic duct cells where most of the HCO-rich fluid originates. Using digital videomicroscopy, we measured the osmotic water permeability (P(f)) of pancreatic duct epitheli...
متن کاملThe relationship between intracellular second messengers and platelet secretion.
Cellular responses caused by interaction of agonists with specific cell-surface receptors are typically mediated by changes in the concentrations of several intracellular second messengers (Rasmussen, 198 1). The relationships between receptor occupancy, changes in second messenger concentrations and the extent of response have been examined for many cells, although no system is as yet complete...
متن کاملDual effects of n-alcohols on fluid secretion from guinea pig pancreatic ducts.
Ethanol strongly augments secretin-stimulated, but not acetylcholine (ACh)-stimulated, fluid secretion from pancreatic duct cells. To understand its mechanism of action, we examined the effect of short-chain n-alcohols on fluid secretion and intracellular Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) in guinea pig pancreatic ducts. Fluid secretion was measured by monitoring the luminal volume of isolated ...
