Impaired Ca(2+) Signaling in β-Cells Lacking Leptin Receptors by Cre-loxP Recombination

Obesity is a major risk factor for diabetes and is typically associated with hyperleptinemia and a state of leptin resistance. The impact of chronically elevated leptin levels on the function of insulin-secreting β-cells has not been elucidated. We previously generated mice lacking leptin signaling...
