ER Stress and ATF6alpha potently induce S-Phase in Old Mouse Beta Cells Cultured Ex-Vivo in High Glucose

Aging is associated with a loss of proliferation of the insulin-secreting beta cell, a possible contributing factor to the greatly increased rate of type-2 diabetes in the elderly. A landmark study from our lab previously illustrated that mild endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress drives beta cell proli...
