Abstract

The insulin secretion pattern by mouse islets is reported to differ from that of human and rat islets in that a strong first phase is followed by an elevated plateau instead of a slowly ascending second phase. This has led to the argument that mouse islets or beta cells may not be a good experimental model. Here, we have tested the role of islet culture on shaping the kinetics of insulin secretion.
