The actions of arginine and glucose on glucagon secretion are mediated by opposite effects on cytoplasmic Ca2+

Johansson, Hans, Gylfe, Erik, Hellman, Bo·1987·Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications

Abstract

Cytoplasmic Ca2+ (Ca2+i) was monitored in single guinea-pig pancreatic alpha 2-cells exposed to modulators of glucagon release. The stimulatory amino acid arginine raised Ca2+i from 62 to 160 nM, whereas the inhibitor glucose reduced both the latter concentration and basal Ca2+i by 30%. Epinephrine which potentiates arginine-stimulated secretion by increasing cAMP, does so without affecting Ca2+i. The results indicate that glucagon secretion is positively modulated by Ca2+i. It is suggested that glucose-induced lowering of Ca2+i is a fundamental effect in cells where the sugar is readily metabolized.

Statistics

Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • These data are consistent with stimulated sequestration and outward transport of Ca2+ being saturated at lower glucose concentrations in alpha-cells than in beta-cells.

    “These data are consistent with stimulated sequestration and outward transport of Ca 2ϩ (14,20,21) being saturated at lower glucose concentrations in ␣-cells (14) than in ␤-cells (21).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
