On February 7, Guifang Dong, PhD; Sangeeta Adak, PhD; Qiang Zhang, PhD; Chu Feng, MS; Li Yin, MD; Sarah Speck; Shuntaro Morikawa; Rie Asada, PhD; Fumihiko Urano, MD, PhD; Maria Remedi, PhD; Xiaochao Wei, PhD; Clay Semenkovich, MD; and collaborators had their work published in “Cell Metabolism.” “Hyperinsulinemia often precedes type 2 diabetes,” and palmitoylation, […]
On January 11, Semenkovich Lab and collaborators, had their research titled “Palmitoylation couples insulin hypersecretion with β cell failure in diabetes,” published in “Cell Metabolism.” Hyperinsulinemia is known to often come before type 2 diabetes. In the study, they explain how acyl-protein thioesterase 1 (APT1) knockdown in nondiabetic islets causes insulin hypersecretion. By using palmitoylation proteomics, their […]
On February 23, Maria S. Remedi, PhD and collaborators had their findings published in “Diabetes,” titled “ATP-Sensitive Potassium Channels in Hyperinsulinism and Type 2 Diabetes: Inconvenient Paradox or New Paradigm?” The article is meant to assess if adenosine triphosphate-sensitive potassium (KATP) channels are a new and effective way of thinking, in regard to hyperinsulinism and type […]
