Importance of Extranuclear Estrogen Receptor-α and Membrane G Protein–Coupled Estrogen Receptor in Pancreatic Islet Survival

OBJECTIVE: We showed that 17β-estradiol (E(2)) favors pancreatic β-cell survival via the estrogen receptor-α (ERα) in mice. E(2) activates nuclear estrogen receptors via an estrogen response element (ERE). E(2) also activates nongenomic signals via an extranuclear form of ERα and the G protein–coupl...
