Decreased GLUT2 and glucose uptake contribute to insulin secretion defects in MODY3/HNF1A hiPSC-derived mutant β cells
Heterozygous HNF1A gene mutations can cause maturity onset diabetes of the young 3 (MODY3), characterized by insulin secretion defects. However, specific mechanisms of MODY3 in humans remain unclear due to lack of access to diseased human pancreatic cells.
ReadTORC1 regulates the transcriptional response to glucose and developmental cycle via the Tap42-Sit4-Rrd1/2 pathway in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Target of Rapamycin Complex 1 (TORC1) is a highly conserved eukaryotic protein complex that couples the presence of growth factors and nutrients in the environment with cellular proliferation. TORC1 is primarily implicated in linking amino acid levels with cellular growth in yeast and mammals.
