Abstract excerpt
Several reports have suggested that Foxo1, a key regulator in differentiation, growth and metabolism, is involved in pancreatic β-cell function. However, detailed analyses have been hampered by a lack of Foxo1-deficient β cells. To elucidate Foxo1's function in β cells, we produced a β-cell line with inducible Foxo1 deletion. We generated a conditional knockout mouse line, in which Cre recombinase deletes the...
