Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Secreting Cell Function as well as Production of Inflammatory Reactive Oxygen Species Is Differently Regulated by Glycated Serum and High Levels of Glucose

GS and HG increase proglucagon mRNA expression. Semiquantitative RT-PCR of proglucagon mRNA expression in GLUTag cells stimulated standard medium (CTR) or high glucose concentration (25 mmol/L) (HG) in presence of different concentrations of glycated serum (400 [GS] and 800 nmol/L [2GS]). (a) Representative agarose gel. (b) Quantification of densitometries of agarose gel bands. Data are represented as mean ± SE ( ). versus CTR.
