Funded Activity Summary

Diabetes is a major and increasing cuase of death and disability in our society. This studies aims to understand the cellular and molecular mechaisms controlling insulin secretion from the pancreas, since defects in this secretion are involved in causing diabetes. The proposed studies are of relevance to both juvenile and adult-onset diabetes, and may lead to new treatment modalities, as well as potentially being relevant to the use of pencreatic islet cell transplantation in the treatment of diabetes.
