38. Insulin secretion regulation in pancreatic islets from taurine-supplemented mice / Regulação da secreção de insulina em ilhotas pancreaticas de camundongos suplementados com taurina
Neste estudo, investigamos os efeitos da suplementação com taurina (TAU; 2% adicionada à água de beber) sobre a tolerância à glicose e a secreção de insulina frente a diferentes secretagogos em camundongos adultos. Camundongos suplementados apresentaram aumento da tolerância à glicose e da sensibilidade à insulina. Ilhotas isoladas destes animais
