Islet β-Cells Deficient in Bcl-xL Develop but Are Abnormally Sensitive to Apoptotic Stimuli

OBJECTIVE: Bcl-xL is an antiapoptotic member of the Bcl-2 family of proteins and a potent regulator of cell death. We investigated the importance of Bcl-xL for β-cells by deleting the Bcl-x gene specifically in β-cells and analyzing their survival in vivo and in culture. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS:...
