Cab45G trafficking through the insulin secretory pathway is altered in human type 2 diabetes by Germanos, M, Yau, B, Taper, M, Yeoman, C, Wilson, A, An, Y, Cattin-Ortolá, J, Maslar, D, Tong, J, Naghiloo, S, Needham, EJ, van der Kraan, AG, Sun, K, Loudovaris, T, Diaz-Vegas, A, Larance, M, Thomas, H, von Blume, J, Thorn, P, Ailion, M, Asensio, CS, Kebede, MA

“…In type 2 diabetes (T2D), the rate of insulin secretory granule biogenesis can limit insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells. Using rat insulinoma INS1 β-cells, we show that the soluble Ca2+-binding/trafficking protein, Cab45G, serves as a non-essential chaperone for insulin granule biogenesis. …”

Living with fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva: radiological images of a patient with extensive heterotopic ossification by Mohammed Mostafa Kotb, Omar, Usama Farghaly, Kaliya-Perumal, Arun-Kumar

“…Radiographic evaluation with X-rays and CT scans revealed scoliosis and total fusion of almost all levels of the spine, with only a few disc spaces spared. A large mass of heterotopic bone was observed, corresponding to the location of the paraspinal muscles in the lumbar region, branching upwards and fusing with the scapulae on both sides. …”
