Deletion of PKCε Selectively Enhances the Amplifying Pathways of Glucose-Stimulated Insulin Secretion via Increased Lipolysis in Mouse β-Cells

OBJECTIVE: Insufficient insulin secretion is a hallmark of type 2 diabetes, and exposure of β-cells to elevated lipid levels (lipotoxicity) contributes to secretory dysfunction. Functional ablation of protein kinase C ε (PKCε) has been shown to improve glucose homeostasis in models of type 2 diabete...
