Endocrine cells of the pancreas
|
ISlets of langerhans surrounding a capillary, 1-2% or total wt of pancrease
|
|
list the cells of the pancreas and what they secrete
|
beta cells: insulin
alpha cells - glucagon Delta cells - somatostatin F-cells (p-p cells) - pancreatic polypeptide |
|
beta cell production of insulin, describe in detail how insulin is made from precursors
|
ribosomes make prepro right in ER, there it is cleaved to proinsulin. Proinsulin goes to golgi, is then cleaved to insulin and C peptide and packaged into vesicles
|
|
secondary messenger signals that release insulin granules
|
Ca (IP3 from ACh and ATP from glucose)
cAMP (beta adrenergic and PKA) PIP3(stim preproinsulin gene, largely unknown) |
|
Insulin release from beta cells
biphasic: |
biphasic
quick - 3-5 min, amt released depends on CHANGE in blood gluc(rate of rise) gradual: 1 hr, responds to STRENGTH of stimulus |
|
Insulin clearance
|
insulinase in liver and kidney remove insulin from blood, disappears 20 min after secretion stops, can remove insulin before it joins circulation
|
|
Glucose Tolerance test
|
give glucose, if over 200 mg/dl [plasma gluc] after 2 hours, = diabetic
|
|
Normal insulin and gluc levels
after eating meal? |
insulin = 3-8
gluc = 100 peak insulin = 150 peak gluc = 150 |
|
Insulin R
|
cys rich binding domain grabs insulin, autophos of tyr kinase domain, autophos of IRS,
PIP2--> PIP3 --> aKT PIP2--> IP3 DAG(PKB and Ca) |
|
actions of insulin
|
+ glut transporters
+ aa uptake and prot syn + lipoprotein lipase(chylomicron)FA syn - HSL, FA catab |
|
what increases insulin
|
gluc aa ketones
intracellular cAMP stim by BETA adrenergic glucagons and K+ |
|
what decreases insulin
|
catecholamines
ALPHA adrenergic receptors somatostatin |
|
describe/draw gluc transport into beta cells and how it causes insulin release
|
GLUT 2 into cell
gets converted to ATP ATP inhibits K efflux channels This causes membrane to depol untill it activates the V-gated Ca channels Causes calcium indiced calcium release from ER Ca causes granules of insulin to exocytose |
|
Actions of insulin
glut transporters aa 2 enzy's for FA |
increases glut transporters
increases protein synthesis stim lipoprotein lipase inhibits HSL(de-P'd) |
|
What stimulates insulin release
|
Ach
gluc aa ketones glucagons |
|
what acts negatively on insulin release
|
somatostatin
IGF |
|
how does glucose cause insulin release
|
glucose is made into ATP via TCA, the extra ATP inhibits potassium eflux channels
this puts membrane closer to depol until eventually V-gated calium channels are opened calcium causes calcium induced calcium release from ER and that larger increase in cytosolic Ca causes insulin vesicles to exocytose |
|
how does Ach cause insulin release
|
ACh -> Gq -> PLC-> PIP2 -> IP3 and DAG -> Ca and PKC
|
|
How does somatostatin inhibit insulin release and what cell is somatostatin made from
|
delta pancreatic cells
somatostatin activates G alpha i beta adrenergic stimulates G alpha s (increase cAMP and PKA) |
|
insulin effect on liver
concerning glycogenolysis and glycolysis |
GLUT 2, glucose -> malonyl CoA,
stops glycogenolysis increases glycolysis( + PFK, Pyruvate kinase, and PDH) decreases gluconeogenesis (- PEP carboxykinase, F1,6b Phosphatase) |
|
insulin effect on liver adipose
|
Decreases FA oxidation(+ acetyl CoA carboxylase is de'P'd to active form-> malonyl CoA -> (-) CAT I so no FA oxidation in mito)
Increases lipogenesis (+ fatty acid synthase, which makes FFA, since you have a bunch of FFA's floating around which the cell cant shuttle into mito oxidation, instead they're esterified with glycerol to TG's) |
|
insulin effects on liver protein
|
stimulates synthesis of proteins and reduces protein degradation
|
|
insulin effects in muscle
glycolysis glycogen synthesis |
increases glucose to glycogen conversion - ( + hexokinase, + glycogen synthase)
increases glycolysis (+ PDH + PFK) |
|
insulin effects on adipocytes
GLUT transporters TG synthesis FFA synthesis breakdown of stored TG's |
increases glut4
Increases TG synthesis: glucose --> *alpha glycerol-phosphate* -->TG Increases FFA synthesis from glucose: ( + PDH and +acetyl CoA carboxylase) decreases TG stored breakdown: (-)HSL |
|
Glucagon effects on liver
glycogenolysis |
G-alpga S = increased PKA
increases glycogenolysis (+ glycogen phosphorylase, + Protein phosphatase Inhibitor) |
|
Glucagon effects on liver
FA-> TG export FA oxidation Ketones |
increases FA -> TG export:
increases FA oxidation: (- acetyl CoA carboxylase so malonyl CoA 'brake' comes off CAT) |
|
Somatostatin
|
blood flows from beta (insulin) to delta (somatostatin) so little effect of somatostatin on insulin
|
|
factors which increase glucagon release
|
AA's!
beta receptors ACh |
|
factors inhibiting glucagon release
|
glucose
alpha receptors insulin somatostatin |
|
glucagon stimulates insulin release because it binds and increases cAMP
|
insulin inhibits glucagon because IT binds and decreases cAMP
|
|
glucagon secreteing cells (alpha cells)
do they have more alpha or beta receptors? |
have more beta b/c want cAMP
insulin has more alpha adrenergic, so when epi is released it stops insulin release and starts glucagon release |
|
why does a high carb meal make you hypoglycemic
|
carbs mostly stimulate insulin, glucagon secretion is mostl AA,
w/o glucagon you get hypoglycemic AA meal will stim both glucagon and insulin release |
|
GLP
|
glucagon like polypeptide
pre-proglucagon is secreted in the lower gastro-intestinal tract. here it is turned into GLP-1 and -2 when chyme occurs in GI, GLP's are released into blood and cause early insulin release and signals satiety |
|
pancreatic polypeptide
|
released from F cells in response to exercise, stress, hypoglycemia and starvation
|
|
somatostatin
effects on glucagon and insulin |
paracrine inhibition of both
|
