Research Abstract |
(1) Ionomycin and caffeine induced the first phase of insulin secretion from rat perfused pancreas. This was affected by basal glucose concentration and did not induced in low concentration of glucose. (2) L-arginine, a potent insulin secretogogue, did not induce Ca^<2+> efflux in the study of ^<45>Ca, even if basal glucose concentration was increased. Since the Ca efflux was definitely induced by glucose, arginine and glucose thought to induce insulin secretion in the differnt manner each other. (3) Arginine vasopression (AVP) and Angiotensin II increased intracellular Ca^<2+> and then induced insulin secretion from rat perfused pancreas and perfused rat islets. The insulin secretion was dependent on the basal glucose concentration of perfusate. Since the effect of AVP was inhibited by V_1-antagonist, and did not inhibted by V_2-antagonist, that was induced through the increase of intracellular Ca_<2+>. (4) D-glucose induced nitric oxide (NO) production from rat perfused pancreas, but there was time lag between No production and insulin secretion. These data suggested that NO production from the pancreas was related to cell damage, and not related to insulin secretion directly. (5) Streptozotosin induced apoptosis of rat pancreas islets. The relationship between apoptosis and NO production is now investigated.
