Insulin C-peptide secretion on-a-chip to measure the dynamics of secretion and metabolism from individual islets
Bibliographic record
Abstract
First-phase glucose-stimulated insulin secretion is mechanistically linked to type 2 diabetes, yet the underlying metabolism is difficult to discern due to significant islet-to-islet variability. Here, we miniaturize a fluorescence anisotropy immunoassay onto a microfluidic device to measure C-peptide secretion from individual islets as a surrogate for insulin (InsC-chip). This method measures secretion from up to four islets at a time with ∼7 s resolution while providing an optical window for real-time live-cell imaging. Using the InsC-chip, we reveal two glucose-dependent peaks of insulin secretion (i.e., a double peak) within the classically defined 1st phase (<10 min). By combining real-time secretion and live-cell imaging, we show islets transition from glycolytic to oxidative phosphorylation (OxPhos)-driven metabolism at the nadir of the peaks. Overall, these data validate the InsC-chip to measure glucose-stimulated insulin secretion while revealing new dynamics in secretion defined by a shift in glucose metabolism.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
