A TRPM4 Inhibitor 9-Phenanthrol Inhibits Glucose- and Glucagon-Like Peptide 1-Induced Insulin Secretion from Rat Islets of Langerhans by Zuheng Ma, Anneli Björklund, Md. Shahidul Islam

“…We tested the effects of 9-phenanthrol on glucose- and GLP-1-induced insulin secretion from isolated rat islets in static incubations. When applied to the islets in the presence of 3.3 mM glucose, 9-phenanthrol caused a small increase in insulin secretion (~7% of the insulin secretion stimulated by 10 mM glucose). 10 μM 9-phenanthrol did not inhibit glucose- or GLP-1-induced insulin secretion. 20 μM and 30 μM 9-phenanthrol inhibited glucose-induced insulin secretion by ~80% and ~85%, respectively. …”
