Glucose and Fatty Acids Synergize to Promote B-Cell Apoptosis through Activation of Glycogen Synthase Kinase 3β Independent of JNK Activation

BACKGROUND: The combination of elevated glucose and free-fatty acids (FFA), prevalent in diabetes, has been suggested to be a major contributor to pancreatic β-cell death. This study examines the synergistic effects of glucose and FFA on β-cell apoptosis and the molecular mechanisms involved. Mouse...
