Organ bath experiments are conventionally used to investigate the physiological actions and effects of hormones and drugs on organ responses. We developed an experimental method to reproduce insulin secretion from isolated rat pancreas preparations, to investigate substances that promote insulin secretion ex vivo. 1,5-anhydro-D-glucitol (1,5-AG) is found in foods, and exists in humans and rodents; however, whether 1,5-AG stimulates insulin secretion remains unclear. This study aimed to assess the effects of short-term 1,5-AG stimulation on insulin secretion in both ex vivo and in INS-1E (rat-derived) cells in vitro. Our results indicated that 1,5-AG had no potency to increase the proportion of insulin outflow both in ex vivo and in vitro experiments. Insulin outflow significantly increased upon stimulation with 10 μM glimepiride, a member of the sulfonylurea class of drugs, ex vivo. Glucose-stimulated insulin secretion was observed not only in INS-1E cells but also in rat pancreatic preparations. Our findings demonstrated that short-term exposure to 1,5-AG had no effect on insulin secretion in rats. |
