1. Adenylate cyclase activity and patterns of insulin release in response to various concentrations of glucose were determined in islets of Langerhans isolated from starving, fed, or glucose-loaded rats. 2. Basal and glucagon-stimulated activities of adenylate cyclase were lower in islets from starved than from fed rats. The minimum glucose concentration required for stimulation of insulin secretion was higher, whereas the maximum secretory response to glucose was lower, in islets from starved than from fed rats. 3. Adenylate cyclase activity in islets of Langerhans obtained from fed rats loaded with glucose by intermittent intravenous or intraperitoneal injections over 5h was significantly higher than that seen in islets from normal fed rats. Islets obtained from glucose-loaded rats required a lower glucose concentration for stimulation of insulin secretion and attained a higher maximal response to glucose stimulation than those derived from fed rats. 4. Incubation in vitro of islets isolated from normal fed rats, for periods of 1 to 24h in the presence of high concentrations of glucose resulted in an activation of adenylate cyclase that occurred progressively from 2 to 7h and which was maintained during 24h of incubation. The increase of adenylate cyclase activity in isolated islets incubated for 4h in the presence of glucose was not prevented by addition of cycloheximide or actinomycin D. Galactose or 2-deoxyglucose was ineffective in increasing adenylate cyclase activity, and pyruvate (20mm) was less effective than glucose. 5. It is suggested that glucose or a glucose metabolite may exert long-term effects on islet cell adenylate cyclase.
