Loss of β-cell identity in diabetes : significance of miR-7-mediated chromatin remodelling
2020-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) affects 10% of the adult global population and is a multifactorial disease characterised by insulin resistance of peripheral organs. Insulin resistance results eventually in failure of pancreatic β-cells and subsequent apoptosis. Recent research revealed that β-cell dedifferentiation is contributing to decreasing their function in T2D. Dedifferentiated β-cells express atypical non-β-cell horm...
