STING signaling in islet macrophages impairs insulin secretion in obesity
The innate immune regulator stimulator of interferon genes (STING) mediates self-DNA sensing and leads to the induction of type I interferons and...

Role of microRNAs in regulation of insulin secretion and insulin signaling involved in type 2 diabetes mellitus
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder due to insulin resistance that can be caused by both genetic and environmental...
