Abstract
Pronase at low concentration (4 micrograins per milliliter) produce a reversible increase of glucose-stimulated insulin release in isolated islets of Langerhans. Pronase also affects the ultrastructure of the beta cells by inducing extensive development of tight junctions as well as the accumulation of secretory product within the extracellular spaces.
