Increased lipolysis and energy expenditure in a mouse model with severely impaired glucagon secretion.
BACKGROUND:Secretion of insulin and glucagon is triggered by elevated intracellular calcium levels. Although the precise mechanism by which the calcium signal is coupled to insulin and glucagon granule exocytosis is unclear, synaptotagmin-7 has been shown to be a positive regulator of calcium-depend...
