The Connexin 43 Regulator Rotigaptide Reduces Cytokine-Induced Cell Death in Human Islets

Background: Intercellular communication mediated by cationic fluxes through the Connexin family of gap junctions regulates glucose-stimulated insulin secretion and beta cell defense against inflammatory stress. Rotigaptide (RG, ZP123) is a peptide analog that increases intercellular conductance in c...
