Gene expression profile in RYAS41 and glucose-stimulated insulin secretion.

<p>A: Semi-quantitative RT PCR comparison between RYAS41, lung (negative control) and pancreas (positive control) from E17 rat embryos. PCR products after 40 amplification cycles are analyzed on a 2% agarose gel. B: CT (threshold cycle) value are normalized to cyclophilin and presented as fold increase compared to 832/13 INS-1 cells. Values are means+/−S.E.M. of Q-PCR performed in duplicates from 3 independent RNA extractions. C: RYAS41 secrete insulin in response to glucose stimulation. Insulin secreted into the medium is presented as % of insulin content secreted per hour. Values are means+/−S.E.M. of three independent cell cultures.
