Gastric inhibitory polypeptide mechanisms of augmenting insulin secretion

Abstract

The cellular mechanisms whereby gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP) augments glucose-dependent insulin secretion remains poorly defined. Since glucose-dependent insulin secretion is modulated by membrane associated phospholipase A2 (PLA2) and intracellular lipoxygenase (LPX) and cyclooxygenase (CO) we hypothesize that GIP's augmentation of insulin secretion involves these enzyme systems. Neonatal rat pancreatic islet cell cultures were preincubated with 5.6mM glucose for 60 minutes. The cultures were then stimulated for 60 minutes with 16mM glucose alone or with GIP with or without the addition of PLA2, LPX, and CO inhibitors. Insulin secretion significantly increased (P less than 0.05) when the glucose concentration was raised from 5.6 to 16mM glucose and this was further augmented by the addition of GIP (P less than 0.05). PLA2 inhibitors significantly (P less than 0.025) decreased 16mM glucose insulin secretion but this was restored by the simultaneous addition of GIP. LPX inhibitors significantly (P less than 0.01) decreased glucose-dependent insulin secretion and this decrease persisted despite the addition of GIP. Simultaneous treatment of islet cell cultures with GIP and CO inhibitors yielded insulin responses that were...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
