Fasting inhibits glucose-induced insulin secretion. We investigated the role of a glucose fatty acid cycle for such inhibition and its molecular basis in pancreatic islets from 48-h fasted rats. The fasting-impaired insulin response to 27 mM glucose was restored by

Annals of nutrition & metabolism, 41(2), 118-125 (1997-01-01)
Rats were fasted for 48 h, but infused with either NaCl or the sodium salt of monoethyl succinic acid (EMS), both delivered at a rate of 80 mumol/g body weight per day. The infusion of EMS, as compared to NaCl

The involvement of phosphatidylcholine (PC) hydrolysis in the regulation of insulin secretion was studied in mouse pancreatic islets prelabelled with [3H]choline. Phospholipase C (PLC) and phospholipase D (PLD) activities were demonstrated and also that of an enzyme that removes both

The present study was undertaken to determine the main metabolic secretory signals generated by the mitochondrial substrate MeS (methyl succinate) compared with glucose in mouse and rat islets and to understand the differences. Glycolysis and mitochondrial metabolism both have key

Two mechanisms have been proposed to explain the insulin-sensitising properties of metformin in peripheral tissues: (a) inhibition of electron transport chain complex I, and (b) activation of the AMP activated protein kinase (AMPK). However the relationship between these mechanisms and
