مستخلص: |
The article discusses the study by Z. Pappalardo and colleagues on small interfering RNA (siRNA) to determine the limits of ß-cell's endurance in severe stress. The study reportedly involved performance of whole-genome RNAi screen to identify genes that affect insulin transcription. The results revealed a novel UPR regulator in pancreatic ß-cells which is a candidate gene for type 2 diabetes. |
