Selenoprotein P-neutralizing antibodies improve insulin secretion and glucose sensitivity in type 2 diabetes mouse models

Selenoprotein P is secreted by the liver and when present in excess it promotes development of type 2 diabetes. Here the authors develop neutralizing antibodies to target human and mouse selenoprotein P, and show that they improve insulin secretion and glucose tolerance in mouse models.
