Tetracycline Treatment Retards the Onset and Slows the Progression of Diabetes in Human Amylin/Islet Amyloid Polypeptide Transgenic Mice

OBJECTIVE: Aggregation of human amylin/islet amyloid polypeptide (hA/hIAPP) into small soluble β-sheet–containing oligomers is linked to islet β-cell degeneration and the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes. Here, we used tetracycline, which modifies hA/hIAPP oligomerization, to probe mechanisms whereby...
