چکیده

Microsomal fractions isolated from pancreatic islet cells were shown to contain high specific glucose-6-phosphatase activity. The islet-cell glucose-6-phosphatase enzyme has the same Mr (36,500), similar immunological properties and kinetic characteristics to the hepatic microsomal glucose-6-phosphatase enzyme.

Presence, induction and possible role of glucose 6-phosphatase in mammalian pancreatic islets.

1. Pancreatic islets from several mammalian species were investigated for hydrolytic activity towards glucose 6-phosphate. Both the total phosphatase activity towards this substrate and the proportion cleaving glucose 6-phosphate in preference to beta-glycerophosphate varied widely between species. In pancreatic-islet homogenates prepared from mice and guinea pigs there was a higher rate of lib...

بررسی اثر گلی‌بن‌کلامید بر ترشح انسولین و فعالیت گلوکوکیناز در جزایر لانگرهانس پانکراس موش‌های صحرایی سالم و دیابتی

Background: Sulfonylurea agents such as Glibenclamide (Glyburide) have been widely prescribe in treatment of type 2 diabetic patients for decades, but controversy remains about their precise mechanism of action. On the other hand, glucokinase serves as a glucose sensor in pancreatic β-cells and plays a key role in the regulation of insulin secretion and glucose homeostasis. The aim of the pres...

بررسی اثر گلوکزآمین بر فعالیت آنزیم‌های گلوکوکیناز و هگزوکیناز پانکراس و ارتباط آن با ترشح انسولین از جزایر لانگرهانس موش‌های صحرایی سالم و دیابتی نوع 2

Background: Glucokinase serves as a glucose sensor in pancreatic β-cells and plays a key role in glucose homeostasis and glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS). In the present study we examined the effect of glucosamine, a glucokinase inhibitor, on the pancreatic glucokinase and hexokinase activities and on insulin secretion from freshly rat pancreatic islets of Langerhans. Insulin concen...

Effect of Ganoderma lucidum hydroalcoholic extract on insulin release in rat-isolated pancreatic islets

Objective: Ganoderma Lucidum (G. Lucidum) has been suggested to increase serum insulin level.This study was undertaken to investigateits direct effect on the islets of Langerhans. Material and Methods: Male albino Wistar rats were anesthetized and the islets were isolated after digestion of the pancreas with collagenase. The islets were incubated for 60 min in Krebs bicarbonate buffer containi...

The ontogeny of human hepatic microsomal glucose-6-phosphatase proteins.

We have studied 250 human liver biopsy samples to determine the ontogeny of the microsomal glucose-6-phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.9) system. Human hepatic glucose-6-phosphatase enzyme activity develops at 11 weeks' gestation and slowly increases to approximately 10% of adult activity at term. In the first week after birth, activity rises to adult values. Increases in enzyme activity coincide with incr...
