1 220534 The beta-cell localization of human pancreatic kallikrein, an endopeptidase that, in concert with carboxypeptidase B, converts bovine proinsulin to a polypeptide with the electrophoretic mobility of insulin, suggests that pancreatic kallikrein may be involved in the physiologic activation of proinsulin.
2 3902891 Kinetic analysis of proinsulin processing by a mixture of trypsin and carboxypeptidase B (to stimulate in vivo processes) revealed (a) a rapid decline in proinsulin concommitant with formation of conversion intermediates, (b) formation of des-Arg31, Arg32-proinsulin and des-Lys64,Arg65-proinsulin in the ratio 3.3:1 at steady state, and (c) complete conversion of the precursor to insulin during extended incubation.
3 8877292 Effects of insulin and lipid emulsion on renal haemodynamics and renal sodium handling in IDDM patients.
4 8877292 To evaluate the role of insulin and hypertriglyceridaemia in the regulation of renal haemodynamics and sodium handling in insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM), 11 IDDM patients without microalbuminuria and 13 weight-, age-, protein intake- and sex-matched healthy control subjects were studied.
5 8877292 We found that Cin, CPAH and filtration fraction were comparable in IDDM and control subjects, whereas CNa was decreased in diabetic subjects (2.01 +/- 1.11 vs 3.03 +/- 1.32 ml/min; p < 0.05) due to elevations of proximal tubular fractional and absolute reabsorptions of sodium (p < 0.05).
6 8877292 We conclude that IDDM without microalbuminuria is associated with a tendency to sodium retention which is not aggravated by insulin when compared to control subjects.
7 9166665 This unusual peak was initially thought to represent partially processed insulin on the basis of its molecular size and susceptibility to trimming by carboxypeptidase B (CpB).
8 9166665 However, the findings of an active carboxypeptidase E (CpE) enzyme and the normal amidated forms of gastrin and cholecystokinin octapeptide (CCK-8) in Psammomys tissues were inconsistent with CpE-related aberrant processing of insulin.
9 9166665 The unusual structure of Psammomys insulin does not appear to contribute to the proinsulinemia observed in diabetic Psammomys since the HPLC-purified molecule did not inhibit PC1 and PC2 convertase activities in an in vitro assay.
10 12239279 Rosiglitazone increased carboxypeptidase B expression in both lep/lep and normal mice suggesting that this might be an independent effect of rosiglitazone that contributes to improved insulin processing.
