Alterations in β-Cell Sphingolipid Profile Associated with ER Stress and iPLA<sub>2</sub>β: Another Contributor to β-Cell Apoptosis in Type 1 Diabetes

Type 1 diabetes (T1D) development, in part, is due to ER stress-induced β-cell apoptosis. Activation of the Ca<sup>2+</sup>-independent phospholipase A<sub>2</sub> beta (iPLA<sub>2</sub>β) leads to the generation of pro-inflammatory eicosanoids, which contribute t...

Alterations in β-Cell Sphingolipid Profile Associated with ER Stress and iPLA<sub>2</sub>β: Another Contributor to β-Cell Apoptosis in Type 1 Diabetes
description Type 1 diabetes (T1D) development, in part, is due to ER stress-induced β-cell apoptosis.

ER stress induces iPLA<sub>2</sub>β-mediated generation of pro-apoptotic ceramides via neutral sphingomyelinase (NSMase). To gain a better understanding of the impact of iPLA<sub>2</sub>β on sphingolipids (SLs), we characterized their profile in β-cells undergoing ER stress.
