The liver-derived exosomes stimulate insulin gene expression in pancreatic beta cells under condition of insulin resistance. Frontiers in endocrinology, 14, Article 1303930. https://doi.org/10.3389/fendo.2023.1303930

Introduction: An insufficient functional beta cell mass is a core pathological hallmark of type 2 diabetes (T2D). Despite the availability of several effective pharmaceuticals for diabetes management, there is an urgent need for novel medications to...

Abnormal acinar–β-cell crosstalk in type 2 diabetes (2023)
Journal Article
Geravandi, S., & Ardestani, A. (2023). Abnormal acinar–β-cell crosstalk in type 2 diabetes. Trends in Endocrinology & Metabolism, 34(11), 685-687. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tem.2023.08.006

Cellular crosstalk plays a vital role in maintaining pancreas homeostasis. Recently, in Cell Metabolism, Basile et al. demonstrated that aberrant upregulation of acinar-cell-specific pancreatic elastase CELA3B within endocrine islets reduces β-cell v...
