The ratio between class II and class I collagenase determines the amount of neutral protease activity required for efficient islet release from the rat pancreas.

Abstract:

Previous investigations clearly showed that the successful release of islets from the pancreas is mediated by both neutral protease (NP) and collagenase, consisting of subclasses I and II showing different capacities to cleave islets from the pancreas. Since no informations about the optimal ratio between class II and class I collagenase (II/I-ratio) are available yet, the present study sought to evaluate the efficient range for the II/I-ratio. METHODS: Following intraductal pancreas collagen...
