In RIN m5F rat insulinoma beta-cells, agonists at cannabinoid CB(1) receptors modulate insulin release. Here we investigated in these cells the effect of the activation of cannabinoid CB(1) and CB(2) receptors on intracellular Ca(2+) ([Ca(2+)](i)). The CB(1) agonist arachidonoyl-chloro-ethanolamide
The cannabinoid 1 receptor (CB1) is an important regulator of energy metabolism. Reports of in vivo and in vitro studies give conflicting results regarding its role in insulin secretion, possibly due to circulatory factors, such as incretins. We hypothesized that this receptor may be a regulator of
