STAT3 Regulates Mitochondrial Gene Expression in Pancreatic β-Cells and Its Deficiency Induces Glucose Intolerance in Obesity
28 Jun 2021
Abstract excerpt
Most obese and insulin-resistant individuals do not develop diabetes. This is the result of the capacity of β-cells to adapt and produce enough insulin to cover the needs of the organism. The underlying mechanism of β-cell adaptation in obesity, however, remains unclear. Previous studies have suggested a role for STAT3 in mediating β-cell development and human glucose homeostasis, but little is known about STAT3...
