REDUCED SOMATOSTATIN SIGNALLING LEADS TO HYPERSECRETION OF GLUCAGON IN MICE FED A HIGH-FAT DIET

Objectives: Elevated plasma glucagon is an early symptom of diabetes, occurring in subjects with impaired glucose regulation.Here, we explored alpha-cell function in female mice fed a high-fat diet (HFD).Methods: Female mice expressing the Ca2+ indicator GCaMP3 specifically in alpha-cells were fed a high-fat or control (CTL) diet.We then conducted

The paper explores the semantic value and the distributional and formal properties of the element tet in West Flemish and assesses its main properties in both aspects.It is also shown that a proper analysis of tet shed further light on other apparently unrelated properties of German Languages, such as the properties of the Vorfeld and the position
