Metabolism of glucose and mannose anomers in pancreatic islets

Abstract: Summary. The a-anomers of D-glucose and D-mannose stimulate insulin release more efficiently than the corresponding 0-anomers. This coincides with higher glycolytic and oxidative fluxes in pancreatic islets exposed to a-than to 0-anomers. This situation may be attributable, in the case of a-D-glucose, not solely to the a-stereospecificity of phosphoglucose isomerase but also to that of phosphoglucomutase resulting in a higher islet content of glucose-1,6-bisphosphate, an activator of phosphofructokinase.
