Aberrant Function and Long-Term Survival of Mouse β Cells Exposed In Vitro to High Glucose Concentrations

In vitro culture of murine Langerhans islets usually ends in islet death after 1-3 wk. Given contradictory published data, we studied the influence of glucose on the function and survival of islets from DBA/2 mice. Islets were cultured on plastic microwells, using 1, 2, or 11 g/l glucose concentrati...
