Syntaxin-3 Regulates Biphasic Glucose Stimulated Insulin Secretion in the Pancreatic Beta Cell

Our study aims to investigate the role of Syntaxin-3 in glucose stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) and how it regulates the recruitment to plasma membrane and/or exocytotic fusion of insulin granules. We examined endogenous Syn-3 function by down-regulating its expression using siRNA/lenti-shRNA,...
