Islet Networks Regulating Insulin Secretion - A Debate
The role of beta cells in diabetes is well established, but how important are the other cells within the islet network? In this episode of Diabetes Insights, Prof. Mark Huising (University of California) and Prof. Guy Rutter (Imperial College London) dive into the intricate crosstalk between islet cells and its impact on insulin secretion and glucose regulation. They debate the influence of alpha and delta cells on beta cell function and explore whether these interactions could hold the key to better diabetes treatments.
