The neuronal K+Cl− co-transporter 2 (Slc12a5) modulates insulin secretion

Abstract Intracellular chloride concentration ([Cl−]i) in pancreatic β-cells is kept above electrochemical equilibrium due to the predominant functional presence of Cl− loaders such as the Na+K+2Cl− co-transporter 1 (Slc12a2) over Cl−extruders of unidentified nature. Using molecular cloning, RT-PCR,...
