General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function transgenic mice, betaGlud1-/-, are generated bearing a beta-cell-specific GDH deletion. In situ pancreatic perfusion reveals that glucose-stimulated insulin secretion is reduced by 37% in transgenic mice. Isolated islets with either constitutive or acute adenovirus-mediated knock-out of GDH show a 49 and 38% reduction in glucose-induced insulin release, respectively. Adenovirus-mediated re-expression of GDH in transgenic mice fully restores glucose-induced insulin release. In transgenic mice reduced secretory capacity results in lower plasma insulin levels in response to both feeding and glucose load, while body weight gain is preserved Mus musculus
