Pancreatic Islet Vasculature Adapts to Insulin Resistance Through Dilation and Not Angiogenesis

Pancreatic islets adapt to insulin resistance through a complex set of changes, including β-cell hyperplasia and hypertrophy. To determine if islet vascularization changes in response to insulin resistance, we investigated three independent models of insulin resistance: ob/ob, GLUT4(+/−), and mice w...
