<i>Chop</i> / <i>Ddit3</i> depletion in β-cells alleviates ER stress and corrects hepatic steatosis
2020-01-03
Abstract excerpt
Type 2 diabetes ( T2D ) is a metabolic disorder characterized by hyperglycemia, hyperinsulinemia and insulin resistance ( IR ). During the early phase of T2D, insulin synthesis and secretion by pancreatic β cells is enhanced, which can lead to proinsulin ( ProIns ) misfolding that aggravates endoplasmic reticulum ( ER ) homeostasis in β cells. Moreover, increased insulin in the circulation may contribute to fa...
