| Abstract | We have previously shown that NO has stimulatory and inhibitory effects on insulin secretion at low and high concentrations, respectively. The present study investigated effects of NO on KATP channels of rat β cells by patch clamp analysis to elucidate the mechanism for the dual effect. NOC7 at 0.5 μM suppressed KATP channels activated by diazoxide in the cell-attached and perforated whole-cell modes but failed to suppress them in the inside-out mode. The inhibitory effect in the cell-attached mode was abolished by the soluble guanylate cyclase inhibitor ODQ and by the protein kinase G inhibitor KT5823. Moreover, 0.5 μM NOC7 failed to suppress the channel activity in the presence of the mitochondrial uncoupler FCCP. In contrast, 10 μM NOC7 activated KATP channels in the cell-attached and perforated whole-cell modes, although it had no effect on the channels in the inside-out mode. The KATP currents evoked by 10 μM NOC7 in the cell-attached mode were not inhibited by ODQ. The dual effect of NOC7 at 0.5 and 10 μM was observed in the same patch. Taken together, these results suggest that low-concentration NO exerts an inhibitory effect on KATP channels of β cells, which is induced through the cGMP/protein kinase G pathway, whereas high-concentration NO activates KATP channels through the mechanism independent of cGMP. |

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.
