Novel Regulators of Glucagon Secretion from α-Cells

The loss of inhibition of glucagon secretion exacerbates hyperglycemia in types 1 and 2 diabetes. However, the molecular mechanisms that regulate glucagon secretion in unaffected and diabetic states remain relatively unexplained. The work discussed here presents evidence for two novel regulators of...
