Interaction Information:
Comment | To determine whether ABCA1 and ABCG1 have complementary roles in beta-cells, mice lacking ABCG1 and beta-cell ABCA1 were generated. Glucose-stimulated insulin secretion was decreased and sterol accumulation increased in islets lacking both transporters compared with those isolated from knockout mice with each gene alone. |
