Protein markers for insulin-producing beta cells with higher glucose sensitivity.

BACKGROUND AND METHODOLOGY: Pancreatic beta cells show intercellular differences in their metabolic glucose sensitivity and associated activation of insulin production. To identify protein markers for these variations in functional glucose sensitivity, rat beta cell subpopulations were flow-sorted f...
