Increased expression of the diabetes gene SOX4 reduces insulin secretion by impaired fusion pore expansion
The transcription factor Sox4 has been proposed to underlie the increased type-2 diabetes risk linked to an intronic SNP in CDKAL1. In a mouse model expressing a mutant form of Sox4, glucose-induced insulin secretion is reduced by 40% despite normal intracellular Ca(2+) signalling and depolarization...
