The Effect of Cholesterol on Membrane-Bound Islet Amyloid Polypeptide
Islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP) is a proposed cause of the decreased beta-cell mass in patients with type-II diabetes. The molecular composition of the cell-membrane is important for regulating IAPP cytotoxicity and aggregation. Cholesterol is present at high concentrations in the pancreatic beta-c...
