Expression of PPARα modifies fatty acid effects on insulin secretion in uncoupling protein-2 knockout mice

AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: In uncoupling protein-2 (UCP2) knockout (KO) mice, protection of beta cells from fatty acid exposure is dependent upon transcriptional events mediated by peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-α (PPARα). METHODS: PPARα expression was reduced in isolated islets from UCP2KO and wi...
