Free Fatty Acid-induced β-Cell Defects Are Dependent on Uncoupling Protein 2 Expression

Chronic exposure to elevated free fatty acids (lipotoxicity) induces uncoupling protein (UCP2) in the pancreatic β-cell, and therefore a causal link between UCP2 and β-cell defects associated with obesity may exist. Recently, we showed that lipid treatment in vivo and in vitro in UCP2(–/–) mice/isle...
