Role of lipid droplets and FITM2 in beta-cell physiology and pathophysiology
Hyperlipidemia is a known driving factor of T2DM, with saturated fatty acids (SFAs) pinpointed as the causation of β cell failure. Hence, intracellular handling of these SFAs, in β cells, was thought to be vital in preventing the loss of its function. The biogenesis of lipid droplets (LDs) forms an...
