Decreasing Cx36 Gap Junction Coupling Compensates for Overactive K(ATP) Channels to Restore Insulin Secretion and Prevent Hyperglycemia in a Mouse Model of Neonatal Diabetes

Mutations to the ATP-sensitive K(+) channel (K(ATP) channel) that reduce the sensitivity of ATP inhibition cause neonatal diabetes mellitus via suppression of β-cell glucose-stimulated free calcium activity ([Ca(2+)](i)) and insulin secretion. Connexin-36 (Cx36) gap junctions also regulate islet ele...
