RNA m6A reader IMP2/IGF2BP2 promotes pancreatic β-cell proliferation and insulin secretion by enhancing PDX1 expression
Background: Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a common metabolic disease. Variants in human IGF2 mRNA binding protein 2 (IMP2/IGF2BP2) are associated with increased risk of T2D. IMP2 contributes to T2D susceptibility primarily through effects on insulin secretion. However, the underlying mechanism is not kno...
