Effects of palmitate on genome-wide mRNA expression and DNA methylation patterns in human pancreatic islets
BACKGROUND: Circulating free fatty acids are often elevated in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and obese individuals. Chronic exposure to high levels of saturated fatty acids has detrimental effects on islet function and insulin secretion. Altered gene expression and epigenetics may contribute t...
