Notes:
Abstract Repeated administration of xanthurenic acid to experimental animals completely eliminates insulin stores in pancreatic B cells and attenuates normalization of blood glucose level in the glucose tolerance test. Xanthurenic acid inhibits insulin secretion by isolated pancreatic islets and decreases zinc-specific luminescent reaction in B cells.
