The F-actin modifier villin regulates insulin granule dynamics and exocytosis downstream of islet cell autoantigen 512

Objective: Insulin release from pancreatic islet β cells should be tightly controlled to avoid hypoglycemia and insulin resistance. The cortical actin cytoskeleton is a gate for regulated exocytosis of insulin secretory granules (SGs) by restricting their mobility and access to the plasma membrane....
