Abstract excerpt
Several mutations of the tyrosine kinase domain of insulin receptor (IR) have been clinically reported to lead insulin resistance and insulin hypersecretion in humans. However, it has not been completely clarified how insulin resistance and pancreatic beta-cell function affect each other under the expression of mutant IR. We investigated the response of pancreatic beta-cells in mice carrying a mutation (P1195L)...
