Knockdown of two ER stress-related genes and their effect on pancreatic beta-cell function
ER stress is associated with beta-cell dysfunction in Type 2 diabetes (T2D). A recent study by Dorajoo and colleagues show that several ER stress implicated genes including HSP90B1, DNAJC3, UCHL1 are upregulated in pancreatic islets from Singaporean-Chinese donors. Besides these genes, OLMALINC,...
