The digitonin-permeabilized pancreatic islet model. Effect of myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate on Ca2+ mobilization

Abstract: Glucose-induced insulin secretion is thought to be mediated by submicromolar increases in intracellular Ca2+, although the intracellular processes are not well understood. We have used the previously characterized digitonin-permeabilized insulin-secreting pancreatic islet model to study the role of myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3), a putative second messenger for mobilization of intracellular Ca2+. Ca2+ efflux from the endoplasmic reticulum was studied with or without vanadate present to inhibit Ca2+ reu… Show more

“…Furthermore, the mechanism of the defect is reduced expression of IP 3 receptors. It has long been known that activation of IP 3 receptors causes calcium release from intracellular stores in the pancreatic ␤ cell (26,27). Although IP 3 receptor-mediated calcium release is clearly involved in muscarinic potentiation of insulin secretion, the role of these receptors in glucose-induced secretion remains controversial.…”

“…On the day of experiment, they were washed once with KRB without glucose and Ca 2ϩ and washed once with TES buffer (50 mM TES, 100 mM KCl, 2 mM MgCl 2 , 1 mM ATP, 0.1% BSA, 3 mM glucose, 1 mM EGTA, pH 7.40). Cells were incubated for 15 min with 0.5 ml of TES buffer containing digitonin as described previously (33,44). In another set of experiments, cells were washed once with KRB and once with KG buffer (140 mM potassium glutamate, 5 mM ATP, 5 mM NaCl, 7 mM MgSO 4 , 0.4 mM EGTA, 1% BSA, and 20 mM HEPES, pH 7.4).…”

“…Western Blot Analysis of Cytosolic Cytochrome c-To avoid mitochondrial contamination, extraction of cytosol was accomplished by permeabilization of the islet plasma membrane (30,31). Islets were incubated in 24-well plates (500/well) containing 500 l of Krebs-Ringer bicarbonate under various conditions.…”
