<i>In vivo</i> studies of glucagon secretion by human islets transplanted in mice
2019-12-15
Abstract excerpt
Relatively little is known about regulated glucagon secretion by human islet α cells compared to insulin secretion from β cells, despite conclusive evidence of dysfunction in both cell types in diabetes mellitus. Distinct insulin sequences in humans and mice permit in vivo studies of β cell regulation after human islet transplantation in immunocompromised mice, whereas identical glucagon sequences prevent analogo...
