Mitofusins Mfn1 and Mfn2 are required to preserve glucose- but not incretin-stimulated β-cell connectivity and insulin secretion by Georgiadou, Eleni, Muralidharan, Charanya, Martinez, Michelle, Chabosseau, Pauline, Akalestou, Elina, Tomas, Alejandra, Yong, Fiona Su Wern, Stylianides, Theodoros, Wretlind, Asger, Legido-Quigley, Cristina, Jones, Ben, Lopez-Noriega, Livia, Xu, Yanwen, Gu, Guoqiang, Alsabeeh, Nour, Cruciani-Guglielmacci, Céline, Magnan, Christophe, Ibberson, Mark, Leclerc, Isabelle, Ali, Yusuf, Soleimanpour, Scott A., Linnemann, Amelia K., Rodriguez, Tristan A., Rutter, Guy A.

“…Whether mitofusin gene expression, and hence, mitochondrial network integrity, is important for glucose or incretin signaling has not previously been explored. Here, we generated mice with β-cell-selective, adult-restricted deletion knock-out (dKO) of the mitofusin genes Mfn1 and Mfn2 (βMfn1/2 dKO). βMfn1/2-dKO mice displayed elevated fed and fasted glycemia and a more than fivefold decrease in plasma insulin. …”

Dynamics in blue emitting metal halide perovskites for light emitting diodes by Karlsson, Max

“…Successful implementation in LEDs has been attributed to efficient carrier funneling from large bandgap (donor) regions to low bandgap regions (acceptors) resulting in improved luminescence yields due to trap state filling from the locally increased carrier density. …”
