| Abstract | The different roles of glycolytic and mitochondrial pathways in glucose-induced metabolic activation and insulin secretion were studied in islets of Langerhans. Single islets were perifused with 3 mM glucose together with agents affecting the production or consumption of ATP. Subsequently, glucose was raised to 11 mM and the effects of the agents on metabolic and secretory responses were evaluated. Metabolism was monitored continuously with an oxygen-sensitive microelectrode inserted into the islet. Insulin secretion was determined by assaying insulin in perifusate with ELISA. Inhibitors of mitochondrial ATP production reduced the metabolic and secretory response to glucose. When glycolytic ATP production was reduced, initial but not sustained glucose-stimulated insulin release was observed. Inhibition of mitochondrial pyruvate transport reduced the glucose-induced decline in pO2. Although mitochondrial metabolism was eventually similar to normal, insulin release was only 20% of normal. Increased energy expenditure also changed the kinetics of the glucose-induced decline in pO2 and decreased the insulin release by 50%. In conclusion, glucose-induced enhancement of insulin release was only seen when the rise of the sugar concentration triggered a rapid and sustained increase of mitochondrial metabolism. This activation of mitochondrial metabolism required a good metabolic state prior to the glucose challenge. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
