Upregulation of UCP2 in beta-cells confers partial protection against both oxidative stress and glucotoxicity
Deterioration of pancreatic beta-cells plays a critical role in the development of type 2 diabetes. Among the various stressors contributing to these deleterious effects, glucotoxicity and superoxides have been proposed as major players. In this context, the mitochondrial uncoupling protein UCP2 is...
