Título: | Protein kinase C isoform specificity of cholinergic potentiation of glucose-induced pulsatile 5-HT/ insulin release from mouse pancreatic islets | Autor: | Baldeiras, Inês E. Santos, Rosa M. Rosário, Luís M. |
Palavras-chave: | Cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration; 5-HT amperometry; Islet of Langerhans; Protein kinase C; Pulsatile insulin release; Thymeleatoxin | Data: | 2006 | Editora: | SciELO | Citação: | Biological Research. 39:3 (2006) 531-539 | Resumo: | Thymeleatoxin (TMX), an activator of Ca2+-sensitive protein kinase C (cPKC) isoforms, was used to assess the PKC isoform specificity of cholinergic potentiation of glucose (11 mM)-induced pulsatile 5-HT/insulin release (PIR) from single mouse pancreatic islets. TMX (100 nM) and carbachol (Cch, 50 \u03bcM) enhanced PIR ~ 3-fold while reducing the underlying [Ca2+]i oscillations (duration and amplitude) by ~ 40-50%. Both effects were ablated by the specific PKC inhibitor bisindolylmaleimide and chronic TMX pretreatment. Cch also evoked an initial transient [Ca2+]i rise and surge of 5-HT release, which remained unaffected by chronic TMX pretreatment. It is concluded that the immediate cholinergic responses are insensitive to cPKC. In contrast, specific activation of a cPKC isoform mediates sustained cholinergic potentiation of glucose-induced insulin secretion | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10316/12862 | ISSN: | 0716-9760 | Direitos: | openAccess |
