Expression of GLUT2 in insulin-secreting AtT20 pituitary cells.
The importance of the glucose transporter isoform, GLUT2, in the construction of glucose-sensitive surrogate insulin-secreting cells was evaluated using murine pituitary AtT20 cells. The cells were double transfected with cDNAs for human preproinsulin (hppI-1) driven by the cytomegalovirus promoter, and human GLUT2 driven by the beta-actin promoter. The stably transfected clone, AtTinsGLUT2.36,...
متن کاملdifferentiation of human embryonic stem cells into insulin- secreting cells
introduction: type i diabetes mellitus is caused by autoimmune destruction of the insulin-producing β-cells. a new potential method for curing the disease is transplantation of differentiated insulin- secreting cells from human embryonic stem cells. methods: human embryonic stem cell lines (royan h1) were used to produce embryoid bodies. differentiation carried out by growth factor-mediated sel...
متن کاملDifferential expression of microRNAs in GH-secreting pituitary adenomas
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to (1) identify specific miRNAs in growth hormones (GH)-secreting pituitary adenomas; (2) determine the relationship between the expression of these miRNAs and tumor size, somatostatin analogs treatment, and responsiveness to somatostatin analogs (SSA). METHODS Fifteen GH-secreting adenomas patients were treated with lanreotide for 4 months before surg...
متن کاملGlucose represses connexin36 in insulin-secreting cells.
The gap-junction protein connexin36 (Cx36) contributes to control the functions of insulin-producing cells. In this study, we investigated whether the expression of Cx36 is regulated by glucose in insulin-producing cells. Glucose caused a significant reduction of Cx36 in insulin-secreting cell lines and freshly isolated pancreatic rat islets. This decrease appeared at the mRNA and the protein l...
متن کامل2-Ketoisocaproate transport in insulin-secreting cells.
The transport of the nutrient secretagogue 2-ketoisocaproate (KIC) was studied in isolated rat pancreatic islets and in the HIT-T15 insulinoma cell line using an oil-filtration technique. In both islets and HIT-T15 cells, KIC uptake was a slow process, not reaching equilibrium within 10 min KIC transport was not dependent upon Na+ in the medium, was not inhibited by alpha-cyano-4-hydroxycinnama...
