Effect of Therapeutic Ultrasound on the Release of Insulin, Glucagon, and Alpha‐Amylase from Ex Vivo Pancreatic Models
Abstract
OBJECTIVES: Our previously published studies showed the potential of therapeutic ultrasound (US) as a novel non-pharmacological alternative for the treatment of secretory deficiencies in type 2 diabetes. Despite showing enhanced insulin release from beta cells, these studies did not explore the potential effects of US treatment on other cells in the islets of Langerhans such as glucagon-secreting alpha cells or acinar cells of the exocrine …
