Endogenous release of hepoxilin A3 from isolated perifused pancreatic islets of Langerhans.

Abstract:

:Pancreatic islets of Langerhans were perifused with Krebs-bicarbonate solution containing glucose (5 and 10 mM). The perifusate was spiked with tetradeuterated hepoxilin A3 and was extracted and analysed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry using NICI detection. Evidence is presented showing the presence of hepoxilin A3 as the hydrolysis product trioxilin A3. These results demonstrate for the first time that this pathway is active in intact cells; this finding, taken together with our previous evidence that hepoxilins possess insulin secretagogue properties further supports our hypothesis that these products could play a role as endogenous mediators of insulin release.

  • Bromoconduritol treatment delays intracellular transport of secretory glycoproteins in human hepatoma cell cultures.

    abstract::Previous studies in our laboratory have shown that specific glycan structures are required for the normal secretion of some glycoproteins. Bromoconduritol is known to inhibit the removal of the innermost glucose moiety from the Glc3Man9(GlcNAc)2 precursor of N-linked glycoproteins. We have used this inhibitor to inves...
