Semenkovich Lab and collaborators show the evolution of type 2 diabetes through APT1 deficiency 

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 […]
