1 | Insulin increases the potency of glycine at ionotropic glycine receptors. | Glycine | insulin | Homo sapiens |
2 | Whole-cell patch-clamp recordings showed that insulin reversibly enhanced current evoked by exogenous glycine and increased the amplitude of spontaneous glycinergic miniature inhibitory postsynaptic currents recorded in cultured spinal neurons. | Glycine | insulin | Homo sapiens |
3 | Insulin (1 microM) also shifted the glycine concentration-response plot to the left and reduced the glycine EC(50) value from 52 to 31 microM. | Glycine | insulin | Homo sapiens |
4 | Together, these results show that insulin has a novel regulatory action on the potency of glycine for ionotropic glycine receptors. | Glycine | insulin | Homo sapiens |
