Microtubules regulate pancreatic β-cell heterogeneity via spatiotemporal control of insulin secretion hot spots

Microtubules regulate pancreatic β-cell heterogeneity via spatiotemporal control of insulin secretion hot spots

Heterogeneity of glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) in pancreatic islets is physiologically important but poorly understood. Here, we utilize mouse islets to determine how microtubules (MTs) affect secretion toward the vascular extracellular matrix at single cell and subcellular levels. Our...
