The effects of dexamethasone on insulin release and biosynthesis are dependent on the dose and duration of treatment
Abstract
Complex results concerning the effect of glucocorticoids on insulin secretion have been reported. The aim of this study is to clarify the direct effects of glucocorticoids on pancreatic islets and to determine whether the effect of glucocorticoids on insulin biosynthesis or release is dependent on the dose and duration of treatment with glucocorticoid. Studies on insulin secretion and biosynthesis were performed with different concentrations (0, 1, 10, 100 nmol/l) and durations (1 and 6 h) of treatment with dexamethasone (dexa) in rat pancreatic islets. (1) One nmol/l dexa had no inhibitory effect on insulin secretion and biosynthesis. Ten and 100 nmol/l had an inhibitory effect on insulin secretion, which was mainly due to suppression of the first phase of insulin secretion. (2) Insulin content was significantly increased regardless of the concentration in 1-h treated islets. However, insulin content was markedly diminished with 100 nmol/l dexa in 6-h treated islets. (3) The preproinsulin mRNA expression of 6-h treated islets was suppressed in a dose-dependent manner. Our data revealed that, in the condition of short-term and low-dose glucocorticoid exposure, insulin secretion and biosynthesis are not affected. The secretory process of insulin seems to be the initial step of the inhibitory action of glucocorticoid. Both insulin release and biosynthesis are inhibited by chronic exposure to high dose dexamethasone. It can be concluded that glucocorticoid might be involved in the multisteps of insulin release and biosynthesis.

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.
