Kiss-and-run exocytosis and fusion pores of secretory vesicles in human beta-cells.

Exocytosis of secretory vesicles results in the release of insulin from pancreatic beta-cells, although little is known about this process in humans. We examined the exocytosis of single secretory vesicles and their associated fusion pores in human beta-cells by cell-attached capacitance and conduct...
