Imidazoline NNC77-0074 stimulates insulin secretion and inhibits glucagon release by control of Ca(2+)-dependent exocytosis in pancreatic alpha- and beta-cells.
We have investigated the effects of the novel imidazoline compound (+)-2-(2-(4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-2-yl)-thiopene-2-yl-ethyl)-pyridine (NNC77-0074) on stimulus-secretion coupling in isolated pancreatic alpha- and beta-cells. NNC77-0074 stimulated glucose-dependent insulin secretion in intact mouse...
