Isolated perifused rat islets were stimulated
with glucose, exogenous insulin, or carbachol. C-peptide and, where
possible, insulin secretory rates were measured. Glucose (8-10
mM) induced dose-dependent and
kinetically similar patterns of C-peptide and insulin secretion. The
addition of 100 nM bovine insulin had no effect on
C-peptide release in response to 8-10 mM glucose
stimulation. The addition of 100 nM bovine insulin or 500 nM human insulin together with 3 mM glucose had
no stimulatory effect on C-peptide secretion rates from perifused rat
islets. Stimulation with carbachol plus 7 mM glucose
enhanced both C-peptide and insulin secretion, and the further addition
of 100 nM bovine insulin had no inhibitory effect on
C-peptide secretory rates under this condition. Perifusion studies
using pharmacologic inhibitors (genistein and wortmannin) of the
kinases thought to be involved in insulin signaling potentiated 10 mM glucose-induced secretion. The results support the
following conclusions. 1) C-peptide release rates accurately reflect
insulin secretion rates from collagenase-isolated, perifused rat
islets. 2) Exogenously added bovine insulin exerts no inhibitory effect on release to several agonists including glucose. 3) In the presence of
3 mM glucose, exogenously added bovine or human insulin do not stimulate endogenous insulin secretion.
