Glucose sensing in the pancreatic beta cell: a computational systems analysis
BACKGROUND: Pancreatic beta-cells respond to rising blood glucose by increasing oxidative metabolism, leading to an increased ATP/ADP ratio in the cytoplasm. This leads to a closure of K(ATP )channels, depolarization of the plasma membrane, influx of calcium and the eventual secretion of insulin. Su...
