- ►diabetesjournals.org GG Holz - Diabetes, 2004 - Am Diabetes Assoc Recently published studies of islet cell function reveal unexpected features of glucagon-like
peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor-mediated signal transduction in the pancreatic β-cell. Although

FM Gribble, F Reimann - Diabetologia, 2003 - Springer Hypoglycaemic agents such as sulphonylureas and the newer group of “glinides” stimulate insulin
secretion by closing ATP-sensitive potassium (K ATP ) channels in pancreatic beta cells, but
have varying cross-reac- tivity with related channels in extrapancreatic tissues such as ... Cited by 107 - Related articles - BL Direct - All 3 versions
