Tight junctions on the move: molecular mechanisms for epithelial barrier regulation.

abstract：:A range of imidazoline derivatives are known to be effective stimulators of insulin secretion, and this response correlates with closure of ATP-sensitive potassium channels in the pancreatic beta-cell. However, mounting evidence indicates that potassium channel blockade may form only part of the mechanism by which imi...
