Differential changes in cyclic adenosine 3′-5′ monophosphate (cAMP) effectors and major Ca2+ handling proteins during diabetic cardiomyopathy by Chaoul, Victoria

“…Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is associated with differential and time-specific regulation of β-adrenergic receptors and cardiac cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases with consequences for total cyclic adenosine 3′-5′ monophosphate (cAMP) levels. We aimed to investigate whether these changes are associated with downstream impairments in cAMP and Ca2+ signalling in a type 1 diabetes (T1D)-induced DCM model. …”

Exendin-4 promotes GSIS without increasing β-cell number through upregulation of glucose-sensing apparatus and mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation machinery genes in hPSC-deriv... by Abdoulaye Diane (14152749)

“…However, GSIS data showed no difference in c-peptide secretion between low (2.8mM) and high (20 mM) glucose but high response to direct cellular depolarization-mediated c-peptide by KCl; suggesting a lack of functional β-cells. Interestingly, addition of Exendin-4 (50 nM) during the last 3 days of the differentiation significantly enhanced GSIS associated with increased expression of glucose-sensing apparatus genes (Glut2, G6P2C, GCK) and genes encoding mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation machinery.…”
