The cell-attached configuration of the patch clamp technique was used for studying slow variations in the activity of the ATP-sensitive K+ channels in pancreatic beta-cells isolated from mouse and man. In 0 or 3 mM glucose, the fraction of time the channels were open exhibited oscillations with frequencies in the 0.25-0.40 /min range. This phenomenon is a strong argument for inherent fluctuations in the ATP production of the beta-cells. variations in metabolism may thus be a major determinant for the characteristic large amplitude oscillations of cytoplasmic Ca2+ with equivalent frequency.
