Pharmacological or genetic inhibition of <i>Scn9a</i> protects beta-cells while reducing insulin secretion in type 1 diabetes
2023-06-12
Abstract excerpt
Pancreatic β-cells are critical for systemic glucose homeostasis, and most of them undergo cell death during the pathogenesis of type 1 diabetes. We previously showed that a Na + channel inhibitor, carbamazepine, could protect β-cells in vitro and in vivo . Here, we confirmed the effects of carbamazepine and other Na + channel inhibitors on human islets and focused on the specific role of the Na + channel gen...
