Boolean network modeling of β-cell apoptosis and insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes mellitus
1 Apr 2019
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Major alteration in lifestyle of human population has promoted Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) to the level of an epidemic. This metabolic disorder is characterized by insulin resistance and pancreatic β-cell dysfunction and apoptosis, triggered by endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, oxidative stress and cytokines. Computational modeling is necessary to consolidate information from various sources in...
