Update on the Protective Molecular Pathways Improving Pancreatic Beta-Cell Dysfunction
The primary function of pancreatic beta-cells is to produce and release insulin in response to increment in extracellular glucose concentrations, thus maintaining glucose homeostasis. Deficient beta-cell function can have profound metabolic consequences, leading to the development of hyperglycemia a...
