Elevated Neuropeptide Y1 Receptor Signaling Contributes to β-cell Dysfunction and Failure in Type 2 Diabetes
2021-05-14
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Loss of functional β-cell mass is a key factor contributing to the poor glycaemic control in type 2 diabetes. However, therapies that directly target these underlying processes remains lacking. Here we demonstrate that gene expression of neuropeptide Y1 receptor and its ligand, neuropeptide Y, was significantly upregulated in human islets from subjects with type 2 diabetes. Importantly, the redu...
