ATP is an essential autocrine factor for pancreatic β‐cell signaling and insulin secretion
Abstract ATP has been previously identified as an autocrine signaling factor that is co‐released with insulin to modulate and propagate β‐cell activity within islets of Langerhans. Here, we show that β‐cell activity and insulin secretion essentially rely on the presence of extracellular ATP. For thi...
