    Description: Insulin secretion from intact mouse pancreatic islets was investigated with two-photon excitation imaging. Insulin granule exocytosis occurred mainly toward the interstitial space, away from blood vessels. The fusion pore was unusually stable with a lifetime of 1.8 seconds. Opening of the 1.4-nanometer-diameter pore was preceded by unrestricted lateral diffusion of lipids along the inner wall of the pore, supporting the idea that this structure is composed of membrane lipids. When the pore dilated to 12 nanometers, the granules rapidly flattened and discharged their contents. Thus, our methodology reveals fusion pore dynamics in intact tissues at nanometer resolution.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Takahashi, Noriko -- Kishimoto, Takuya -- Nemoto, Tomomi -- Kadowaki, Takashi -- Kasai, Haruo -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2002 Aug 23;297(5585):1349-52.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Cell Physiology, National Institute for Physiological Sciences, and the Graduate University of Advanced Studies, Myodaiji, Okazaki 444-8585, Japan.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12193788" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Glucose metabolism in glycolysis and in mitochondria is pivotal to glucose-induced insulin secretion from pancreatic beta cells. One or more factors derived from glycolysis other than pyruvate appear to be required for the generation of mitochondrial signals that lead to insulin secretion. The electrons of the glycolysis-derived reduced form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) are transferred to mitochondria through the NADH shuttle system. By abolishing the NADH shuttle function, glucose-induced increases in NADH autofluorescence, mitochondrial membrane potential, and adenosine triphosphate content were reduced and glucose-induced insulin secretion was abrogated. The NADH shuttle evidently couples glycolysis with activation of mitochondrial energy metabolism to trigger insulin secretion.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Eto, K -- Tsubamoto, Y -- Terauchi, Y -- Sugiyama, T -- Kishimoto, T -- Takahashi, N -- Yamauchi, N -- Kubota, N -- Murayama, S -- Aizawa, T -- Akanuma, Y -- Aizawa, S -- Kasai, H -- Yazaki, Y -- Kadowaki, T -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1999 Feb 12;283(5404):981-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Internal Medicine, Graduate School of Medicine, University of Tokyo, 7-3-1 Hongo, Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo 113, Japan.

    Publication Date: 1989-07-07
    Description: Insulin receptor complementary DNA has been cloned from an insulin-resistant individual whose receptors have impaired tyrosine protein kinase activity. One of this individual's alleles has a mutation in which valine is substituted for Gly996, the third glycine in the conserved Gly-X-Gly-X-X-Gly motif in the putative binding site fo adenosine triphosphate. Expression of the mutant receptor by transfection into Chinese hamster ovary cells confirmed that the mutation impairs tyrosine kinase activity.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Odawara, M -- Kadowaki, T -- Yamamoto, R -- Shibasaki, Y -- Tobe, K -- Accili, D -- Bevins, C -- Mikami, Y -- Matsuura, N -- Akanuma, Y -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Jul 7;245(4913):66-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Third Department of Internal Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, University of Tokyo, Japan.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2544998" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Insulin receptor complementary DNA has been cloned from an insulin-resistant patient with leprechaunism whose receptors exhibited multiple abnormalities in insulin binding. The patient is a compound heterozygote, having inherited two different mutant alleles of the insulin receptor gene. One allele contains a missense mutation encoding the substitution of glutamic acid for lysine at position 460 in the alpha subunit of the receptor. The second allele has a nonsense mutation causing premature chain termination after amino acid 671 in the alpha subunit, thereby deleting both the transmembrane and tyrosine kinase domains of the receptor. Interestingly, the father is heterozygous for this nonsense mutation and exhibits a moderate degree of insulin resistance. This raises the possibility that mutations in the insulin receptor gene may account for the insulin resistance in some patients with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kadowaki, T -- Bevins, C L -- Cama, A -- Ojamaa, K -- Marcus-Samuels, B -- Kadowaki, H -- Beitz, L -- McKeon, C -- Taylor, S I -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 May 6;240(4853):787-90.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Biochemistry and Molecular Pathophysiology Section, National Institute of Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Disease, Bethesda, MD 20892.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2834824" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
