The effects of beta-cell mass and function, intercellular coupling, and islet synchrony on $${\text {Ca}}^{2+}$$ Ca 2 + dynamics
Abstract Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a challenging metabolic disorder characterized by a substantial loss of $$\beta $$ β -cell mass and alteration of $$\beta $$ β -cell function in the islets of Langerhans, disrupting insulin secretion and glucose homeostasis. The mechanisms for deficiency in $$\beta...
