Deletion of ARNT (Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor Nuclear Translocator) in β-Cells Causes Islet Transplant Failure with Impaired β-Cell Function

BACKGROUND: Replacing β-cells by islet-transplantation can cure type 1 diabetes, but up to 70% of β-cells die within 10 days of transplantation. ARNT (Aryl hydrocarbon Receptor Nuclear Translocator) regulates β-cell function, and potentially survival. Lack of ARNT impairs the ability of β-cells to r...
