HB-EGF Signaling is Required for Glucose-Induced Pancreatic β-Cell Proliferation in Rats
2019-06-27
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The molecular mechanisms of β-cell compensation to metabolic stress are poorly understood. We previously observed that nutrient-induced β-cell proliferation in rats is dependent on Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) signaling. The aim of this study was to determine the role of the EGFR ligand Heparin-Binding EGF-like Growth Factor (HB-EGF) in the β-cell proliferative response to glucose, a...
