| 1 | In cultured human islets, anti-CD38-positive sera exhibiting [Ca2+]i-mobilizing activity in Jurkat T-cells (n = 6) significantly stimulated insulin release at 3.3 mmol/l glucose (median [interquartile range] 738 microU/ml [234], P = 0.0001 vs. 320 [52] microU/ml of control), whereas 6 anti-CD38-positive sera without [Ca2+]i-mobilizing activity and 10 anti-CD38-negative did not. | Glucose | CD38 molecule | Homo sapiens |
| 2 | In further incubations, the five anti-CD38-positive sera displaying [Ca2+]i-mobilizing activity in dispersed islet cells significantly stimulated insulin release at both 3.3 mmol/l glucose (2.2 +/- 0.3% of insulin islet content, P < 0.002 vs. 1.2 +/- 0.1% of control) and 16.7 mmol/l glucose (3.7 +/- 0.3 vs. 2.3 +/- 0.3%, P < 0.002). | Glucose | CD38 molecule | Homo sapiens |
| 3 | In further incubations, the five anti-CD38-positive sera displaying [Ca2+]i-mobilizing activity in dispersed islet cells significantly stimulated insulin release at both 3.3 mmol/l glucose (2.2 +/- 0.3% of insulin islet content, P < 0.002 vs. 1.2 +/- 0.1% of control) and 16.7 mmol/l glucose (3.7 +/- 0.3 vs. 2.3 +/- 0.3%, P < 0.002). | Glucose | CD38 molecule | Homo sapiens |
