Missense mutation of ISL1 (E283D) is associated with the development of type 2 diabetes

The prevalence of early-onset type 2 diabetes mellitus has increased rapidly worldwide, particularly in Asia, characterised by an impairment of insulin secretion, but the causative genes remain unclear [ 1 – 5 ]. The genes encoding transcription …

Sex-dependent intra-islet structural rearrangements affecting alpha-to-beta cell interactions lead to adaptive enhancements of Ca2+ dynamics in prediabetic beta cells

In type 2 diabetes, pancreatic beta cells initially compensate for peripheral insulin resistance by adapting their function and mass to secrete more insulin and retain normoglycaemia [ 1 , 2 ]. Evidence for a predominant role of beta cell …

Capillary contact points determine beta cell polarity, control secretion and are disrupted in the db/db mouse model of diabetes

Indirect data suggest beta cells might be polarised, with evidence of polar distribution of viral particles [ 1 ], insulin granules [ 2 ] and the Golgi apparatus [ 3 ]. More recently, a regulator of cell polarity, liver kinase B1 (LKB1), was shown …

The insulin secretory granule is a hotspot for autoantigen formation in type 1 diabetes

In type 1 diabetes, the insulin-producing beta cells of the pancreas are destroyed through the activity of autoreactive T cells. In addition to strong and well-documented HLA class II risk haplotypes, type 1 diabetes is associated with noncoding …
