Correlation of circulating betatrophin concentrations with insulin secretion capacity, evaluated by glucagon stimulation tests

Betatrophin has recently been identified as a potential stimulator of β‐cell mass expansion in mice; however, the pathophysiological role of betatrophin in people with diabetes is still unknown.This is the first report to show that betatrophin concentrations correlate negatively with insulin secret...
