摘要: SPECIFIC AIMGlucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) is secreted postprandially and acts in concert with glucose to stimulate insulin secretion from the pancreas. In type 2 diabetic patients animal models of disease where there persistent hyperglycemia, ability GIP severely abrogated due a decreased expression receptors on pancreatic β cell. Here we set out define mechanisms by which (GIPR) down-regulation could occur diabetes.PRINCIPAL FINDINGS1. Glucose down-regulates receptor concentration- time-dependent mannerGlucose (25 mM) was able significantly reduce GIPR mRNA 64 ± 7% 28 6% basal levels INS(832/13) cells after 6 24 h, respectively. Furthermore, h incubation 11 mM caused significant, 36 7%, reduction these cells. Saturation binding analyses showed marked, statistically significant decrease amount ...
