  Insulin secretion reactivation of pancreatic islets from starved rats in vitro.

  Hahn HJ, Gottschling HD.

  Acta Biol Med Ger. 1977;36(10):1423-7.

  Starvation of Wistar rats induced a shift of glucose threshold for insulin secretion of isolated islets above 5 mM, which can be restored by pretreatment of the tissue with glucose, mannose, glyceraldehyde, an theophylline, but not with acetylcholine or lactate. The improved insulin secretion is not connected with an enhanced glucose utilization.
