Sphingosine 1-phosphate Stimulates Insulin Secretion and Improves Cell Survival by Blocking Voltage-dependent K+ Channels in β Cells

Recent studies suggest that Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) plays an important role in regulating glucose metabolism in type 2 diabetes. However, its effects and mechanisms of promoting insulin secretion remain largely unknown. Here, we found that S1P treatment decreased blood glucose level and increa...
