DOI: 10.1016/j.cmet.2019.12.005
Abstract: Type 1 diabetes (T1D) results from the progressive loss of β cells, a process propagated by pro-inflammatory cytokine signaling that disrupts the balance between pro- and anti-apoptotic proteins. To identify proteins involved in this process,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.molmet.2020.101014
Abstract: Objectives Our study shows that glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is secreted within human islets and may play an unexpectedly important paracrine role in islet physiology and pathophysiology. It is known that α cells within rodent and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1210/en.2016-1184
Abstract: Islet-cell hormone release is modulated by signals from endothelial and endocrine cells within the islet. However, models of intraislet vascularization and paracrine cell signaling are mostly based on the rodent pancreas. We assessed the architecture… read more here.

Coxsackievirus-Induced Proteomic Alterations in Primary Human Islets Provide Insights for the Etiology of Diabetes
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Journal of the Endocrine Society"
DOI: 10.1210/js.2017-00278
Abstract: Enteroviral infections have been associated with the development of type 1 diabetes (T1D), a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by autoimmune destruction of insulin-producing pancreatic beta cells. Cultured human islets, including the insulin-producing beta cells, can… read more here.
