miR‐9 Restricts Insulin Secretion by Targeting Rab34, Which Mediates Lysosomal Degradation of Proinsulin [PDF]
Insulin secretion is a complex, vesicular transport process. Rab34 is a key regulator of intracellular vesicle transport; however, its role in insulin secretion has not yet been reported.

The contrasting effects of two antimalarial drugs on insulin secretion [PDF]
Quinolines and artemisinins are the two most important antimalarial drugs worldwide. In addition to antimalarial effects, quinine has been extensively documented to directly stimulate insulin secretion, potentially causing hypoglycemia in malaria ...

Molecular and Cellular Bases of Lipodystrophy Syndromes
Lipodystrophy syndromes are rare diseases originating from a generalized or partial loss of adipose tissue. Adipose tissue dysfunction results from heterogeneous genetic or acquired causes, but leads to similar metabolic complications with insulin ...

Heterozygous loss-of-function variants of the glucokinase (GCK) gene are responsible for a subtype of maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY). GCK-MODY is characterized by a mild hyperglycemia, mainly due to a higher blood glucose threshold for ...

THE HYPOPHYSIS AND SECRETION OF INSULIN [PDF]
The ability of the pancreas, from various types of dogs, to correct diabetic hyperglycemia has been studied (Table XI). The pancreas from one animal was united by a vascular union with the neck blood vessels of another dog which had been pancreatectomized for 20 hours. The time necessary to reduce the blood sugar level to 120 mg.

Insulin secretion assays in an engineered MIN6 cell line
Insulin secretion from pancreatic beta cells is crucial for maintaining glucose homeostasis. The murine insulinoma derived MIN6 cell line is commonly used as a model for insulin secretion studies. However, its glucose responsiveness wanes with passaging,

Calmodulin and insulin secretion [PDF]
It is clear that calcium ions are of considerable importance as a second messenger in insulin secretion. There is increasing evidence that calmodulin, a ubiquitous intracellular regulatory protein that mediates calcium-dependent processes, has a fundamental role in stimulus-secretion coupling.

MiR-184 regulates insulin secretion through repression of Slc25a22 [PDF]
Insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells plays an essential role in blood glucose homeostasis and type 2 diabetes. Many genes are involved in the secretion of insulin and most of these genes can be targeted by microRNAs (miRNAs).

Insulin resistance and insufficient insulin secretion are well-recognized contributors to type 2 diabetes. A potential role of reduced insulin clearance has been suggested, but few studies have investigated the contribution of insulin clearance while ...
