Article Synopsis
- Tocotrienols (T3), particularly δ-T3 and γ-T3, show promise in enhancing insulin gene expression and secretion in rat pancreatic cells, especially when glucose levels are elevated.
- Short-term exposure to δ- and γ-T3 significantly increases preproinsulin mRNA levels, indicating their role in insulin synthesis, unlike α-T3 which is less effective.
- The addition of potassium chloride (KCl) further boosts insulin production, highlighting the potential of δ-T3 in regulating insulin synthesis in a glucose-rich environment.
