No evidence for mutations in a putative subunit of the beta-cell ATP-sensitive potassium channel (K-ATP channel) in Japanese NIDDM patients.
The ATP-sensitive K channel (K-ATP channel) in pancreatic beta cells is believed to play a crucial role in glucose-stimulated insulin release. We investigated whether defects in the recently cloned gene for a putative subunit of this channel (KATP-2) could be a cause of diabetes in Japanese patients...
