Diabetic pdx1-mutant zebrafish show conserved responses to nutrient overload and anti-glycemic treatment

Diabetes mellitus is characterized by disrupted glucose homeostasis due to loss or dysfunction of insulin-producing beta cells. In this work, we characterize pancreatic islet development and function in zebrafish mutant for pdx1, a gene which in humans is linked to genetic forms of diabetes and is a...
