FoxO1 Gain of Function in the Pancreas Causes Glucose Intolerance, Polycystic Pancreas, and Islet Hypervascularization
Genetic studies revealed that the ablation of insulin/IGF-1 signaling in the pancreas causes diabetes. FoxO1 is a downstream transcription factor of insulin/IGF-1 signaling. We previously reported that FoxO1 haploinsufficiency restored β cell mass and rescued diabetes in IRS2 knockout mice. However,...
