Abnormal regulation of glucagon secretion by human islet alpha cells in the absence of beta cells
Background: The understanding of the regulation of glucagon secretion by pancreatic islet α-cells remains elusive. We aimed to develop an in vitro model for investigating the function of human α-cells under direct influence of glucose and other potential regulators. Methods: Highly purified human α-...
