Abstract: Aims/hypothesis Although cells expressing insulin are detected early in human fetal development, islets isolated from fetal pancreases show poor insulin secretory responses to glucose, which may be the result of deficient glucose sensing. We have used dual and triple immunolabelling of human fetal and adult pancreas sections to investigate the presence of proteins that participate in glucose sensing in the pancreatic beta cell, namely glucose transporter 1 (GLUT 1, also known as SLC2A1), glucose transporter 2 … Show more

“…Only the half-maximally effective glucose concentration was slightly higher in infant than adult islets (G 7–8.5 versus G 6.5–7). These adult-type responses to glucose indirectly indicate that metabolism of the sugar is also controlled by glucokinase rather than hexokinase-I [28, 43, 44] in infant β-cells.…”

“…In human fetuses, K ATP channels were identified in a subpopulation of pancreatic epithelial cells at 10 weeks of gestation but not in β cells before 16 weeks of gestation. At 15 weeks of gestation, K ATP channel subunits did not co-localise with glucagon or somatostatin [16]. K ATP channels are functional as early as 14 weeks of gestation in humans but do not respond to glucose [17].…”

“…Although both GLUT1 and GLUT2 isoforms may be present in human islets (Richardson et al, 2007). GLUT2 is the main isoform expressed in rodent pancreatic β-cells (Efrat et al, 1994; Thorens, 2001).…”
