δ‐cells and β‐cells are electrically coupled and regulate α‐cell activity via somatostatin
KEY POINTS: We used a mouse expressing a light‐sensitive ion channel in β‐cells to understand how α‐cell activity is regulated by β‐cells. Light activation of β‐cells triggered a suppression of α‐cell activity via gap junction‐dependent activation of δ‐cells. Mathematical modelling of human islets s...
