Deletion of the von Hippel-Lindau gene in pancreatic beta cells impairs glucose homeostasis in mice.
Defective insulin secretion in response to glucose is an important component of the beta cell dysfunction seen in type 2 diabetes. As mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation plays a key role in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS), oxygen-sensing pathways may modulate insulin release. The von...
