A species difference in nucleoside phosphorylase activity and inosine-stimulated insulin secretion in isolated islets of Langerhans.


ABSTRACT: Inosine is a potent simulant of insulin release from rat but not from rabbit islets of Langerhans. Further investigation showed that nucleoside phosphorylase activity is exceptionally low in rabbit islets. The ability of inosine to promote insulin release seems to be related to islet nucleoside phosphorylase activity, which can display marked species differences.
