Electrophysiological and metabolic characterization of single beta-cells and islets from diabetic GK rats.
We have used the whole-cell recording technique to determine whether ATP-sensitive potassium (K[ATP]) currents, voltage-dependent Ca2+ currents, and exocytosis are different in single beta-cells from pancreatic islets of Goto-Kakizaki (GK) rats, a novel model of NIDDM, and normal rats. In addition,...
