The molecular control of beta cell function by insulin and hypoxia cellular signalling pathways
This thesis reports the investigation of the role of the insulin receptor substrate 2 (Irs2) and von Hippel-Lindau (Vhl) genes in B-cell function, using the cre-loxP system to delete these genes in the pancreas of mice. Pancreatic 8-cells sense and respond to the metabolic status of the body via cel...
