The beta TC3 tumor cell line was examined for the presence of functional glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) receptors. Increasing amounts of natural porcine GIP decreased the binding of HPLC-purified [125I]GIP to beta TC3 cells in a concentration-dependent manner. Displacement of GIP was significant at concentrations as low as 500 pM, and the radioligand was fully displaced at 100 nM. GIP(1-30) produced a displacement of [125I]GIP comparable with that produced by GIP(1-42), and glucagon yielded 20% displacement at a concentration of 1 microM but was without effect at 100 mM. Incubation of beta TC3 cells in the presence of glucose concentrations of 2-20 mM yielded a concentration-dependent stimulation of immunoreactive insulin (IRI) release. GIP and glucagon-like peptide-I(7-36) amide (tGLP-I) at concentrations of 1 nM or greater significantly stimulated IRI release in the presence of 2 mM glucose. The threshold glucose concentration for GIP-stimulated IRI release from beta TC3 cells was 0.5 mM, and maximal potentiation of IRI release by GIP occurred at 5 mM glucose. Somatostatin significantly inhibited GIP-stimulated IRI release in the presence of 5 mM glucose. It is concluded that beta TC3 cells have functional GIP receptors and may provide a useful model for the study of IRI secretion at the cellular level.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007328 Insulin A 51-amino acid pancreatic hormone that plays a major role in the regulation of glucose metabolism, directly by suppressing endogenous glucose production (GLYCOGENOLYSIS; GLUCONEOGENESIS) and indirectly by suppressing GLUCAGON secretion and LIPOLYSIS. Native insulin is a globular protein comprised of a zinc-coordinated hexamer. Each insulin monomer containing two chains, A (21 residues) and B (30 residues), linked by two disulfide bonds. Insulin is used as a drug to control insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (DIABETES MELLITUS, TYPE 1).

D007457 Iodine Radioisotopes Unstable isotopes of iodine that decay or disintegrate emitting radiation. I atoms with atomic weights 117-139, except I 127, are radioactive iodine isotopes. Radioisotopes, Iodine
D007515 Islets of Langerhans Irregular microscopic structures consisting of cords of endocrine cells that are scattered throughout the PANCREAS among the exocrine acini. Each islet is surrounded by connective tissue fibers and penetrated by a network of capillaries. There are four major cell types. The most abundant beta cells (50-80%) secrete INSULIN. Alpha cells (5-20%) secrete GLUCAGON. PP cells (10-35%) secrete PANCREATIC POLYPEPTIDE. Delta cells (~5%) secrete SOMATOSTATIN.

D010190 Pancreatic Neoplasms Tumors or cancer of the PANCREAS. Depending on the types of ISLET CELLS present in the tumors, various hormones can be secreted: GLUCAGON from PANCREATIC ALPHA CELLS; INSULIN from PANCREATIC BETA CELLS; and SOMATOSTATIN from the SOMATOSTATIN-SECRETING CELLS. Most are malignant except the insulin-producing tumors (INSULINOMA).

D011964 Receptors, Gastrointestinal Hormone Cell surface proteins that bind gastrointestinal hormones with high affinity and trigger intracellular changes influencing the behavior of cells.

Glucagon is secreted by PANCREATIC ALPHA CELLS and plays an important role in regulation of BLOOD GLUCOSE concentration, ketone metabolism, and several other biochemical and physiological processes.
