GLP-I(7–36) Amide Augments Ba2+ Current Through L-Type Ca2+ Channel of Rat Pancreatic β-Cell in a cAMP-Dependent Manner

Abstract: The whole-cell patch-clamp method was used to examine the effect of glucagon-like peptide I (GLP-I)(7-36) amide on the activation process of L-type Ca2+ channels of rat pancreatic beta-cells. After depolarization, GLP-I (1-100 nmol/l) caused action potentials in cells exposed to a glucose-free solution for 10 min. The percentage of cells producing action potential depended on the concentration of GLP-I. In some cells, GLP-I caused action potentials without the prior depolarization of the membrane. In cells exp… Show more

“…These results suggest that β‐cell function is actually well activated with combined use of sulfonylurea drugs and DPP‐4 inhibitors, although the effect of sitagliptin to lower glucagon 4 might also contribute to the reduced sulfonylurea doses. It is coming to be understood that incretin not only promotes the insulin release reaction in β‐cells 5,23 , but it also stimulates the insulin secretion response through multiple actions 24 , such as promoting adenosine triphosphate generation in mitochondria 25 , and both sulfonylurea and incretin act on exchange protein directly activated by cyclic adenosine monophosphate 2A in β‐cells 26,27 . Therefore, incretin and sulfonylurea are supposed to stimulate insulin secretion in coordinated and synergistic manners, and the present results appear to reflect these stimulatory effects of incretin and sulfonylureas on pancreatic β‐cells.…”

“…Identification of ␤ cells from other islet cells was carried out by detecting the excitatory electrical response of the cells to 15 mM glucose or to 0.5 mM tolbutamide. The patch clamp method was used to record membrane currents and membrane potential with an EPC-7 patch-clamp amplifier (List Electronic, Germany) (36,37). The resistance of electrodes made of borosillicate glass capillaries was 2-4 megaohms.…”

“…These include an inhibition of the ATP-sensitive K + (K ATP ) channels (Holz et al 1993;Gromada et al 1997), an acceleration of the voltage-gated L-type Ca 2+ channels (Britsch et al 1995;Suga et al 1997), the stimulation of Ca 2+ mobilization from intracellular stores (Gromada et al 1995), and a potentiation of Ca…”
