Endogenous glucagon-cells are necessary for the glucose-responsiveness of the HIT-T15 hamster β-cell line
The role of glucagon in glucose-stimulated insulin release was investigated using the hamster insulinoma cell line, HIT-T15, as a model of the pancreatic β-cell. Glucose-stimulated insulin release from HIT-T15 cells was concentration-dependent over a range of glucose concentrations between 0 and 15...
