Active Immunization Against hIAPP Oligomers Ameliorates the Diabetes- Associated Phenotype in a Transgenic Mice Model
Abstract Type 2 diabetes is characterized by insulin tolerance in target cells followed by a reduction of pancreatic β-cell mass. Islet amyloid polypeptide oligomeric assemblies were shown to contribute to β-cell apoptosis by forming discrete pores that destabilize the cellular membrane. We previous...
