Interaction of Amino Acids and Cyclic AMP on the Release of Insulin and Glucagon by Newborn Rat Pancreas

Abstract: Splenic lobes from the pancreas of newborn rats (48-64) hr. were used for the in vitro investigation of cyclic AMP, glucose and amino acid interaction in hormonal secretion. The slight discrepancy found in glucagon relaease with radioimmunoassay and binding assay to specific receptors in liver does not affect the ratio of stimulated to control values. The insulin release due to gheophylline dibutyrl cyclic AMP (dbcAMP) or to arginine is glucose-dependent as in adult rats and provides an index for the validit… Show more

“…Thus arginine appeared to protect the A-cells against the inhibitory effect of cyclic AMP and only the early stimulatory effect was seen. This agrees with the report by Jarrousse and Rosselin [36] that dibutyryl cyclic AMP and theophylline enhanced amino acid induced glucagon release, but is at variance with the findings of Marco et a1. [54], who observed an inhibitory effect of aminophylline on arginine-induced glucagon release in vivo.…”

“…This has been shown with cyclic AMP [33,34,35], dibutyryl cyclic AMP [32,35,36], and by raising intracellular cyclic AMP levels with theophylline [24,32,35,36,37,38]. By contrast, our own data [39] showed consistent inhibition of glucagon release with cyclic AMP or theophylline in monolayer cultures of newborn rat pancreas.…”

“…The present investigation, showing a similar low threshold for insulin biosynthesis and release in the control group of neonatal offspring, is at variance with previous studies in both adult [9] and neonatal [3] rat islets in vitro. In those studies it was found that the glucose threshold of insulin biosynthesis was lower than that of insulin secretion, and that the half maximal response for glucose-stimulated insulin release was found in the glucose concentration range 7-8 mmol/1 in islets from neonatal animals, compared with 4.1 mmol/1 glucose in the control group in the present study.…”

“…Coughlin, unpublished observations). GPRC6A may be activated by arginine and lysine (42), basic amino acids that can stimulate β cell insulin secretion (43), by a mechanism as yet incompletely understood. Might insulin secretion in response to basic amino acids be mediated by GPRC6A?…”
