Survey of the Human Pancreatic β-Cell G1/S Proteome Reveals a Potential Therapeutic Role for Cdk-6 and Cyclin D1 in Enhancing Human β-Cell Replication and Function In Vivo

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: To comprehensively inventory the proteins that control the G1/S cell cycle checkpoint in the human islet and compare them with those in the murine islet, to determine whether these might therapeutically enhance human beta-cell replication, to determine whether human beta-cell replication can be demonstrated in an in vivo model, and to enhance human beta-cell function in vivo.
