20-HETE promotes glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in an autocrine manner through FFAR1
FFAR1 receptor is highly expressed in beta cells and its activation has been suggested as therapy against type-2 diabetes. Here, Tunaru et al. show that 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid, produced within the islets upon glucose stimulation, acts in an autocrine manner to stimulate insulin secretion vi...

| Sumario: | FFAR1 receptor is highly expressed in beta cells and its activation has been suggested as therapy against type-2 diabetes. Here, Tunaru et al. show that 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid, produced within the islets upon glucose stimulation, acts in an autocrine manner to stimulate insulin secretion via FFAR1 activation. |
