Reactive oxygen and nitrogen species generation, antioxidant defenses, and β-cell function: a critical role for amino acids

Reactive oxygen and nitrogen species generation, antioxidant defenses, and β-cell function: a critical role for amino acids

Growing evidence indicates that the regulation of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS) levels is essential for maintaining normal β-cell glucose responsiveness. While long-term exposure to high glucose induces oxidative stress in β cells, conflicting result...
