Diabetic islets were characterized by reduced insulin content, decreased amount of mature insulin granules, impaired glucose-induced insulin secretion, reduced insulin mRNA expression, and increased apoptosis with enhanced caspase-3 and -8 activity. These alterations were associated with increased oxidative stress, as shown by higher nitrotyrosine concentrations, increased expression of protein kinase C-beta2 and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate reduced-oxidase,"; prov:wasQuotedFrom pubmed:15531508 . sub:_3 rdfs:label "Selventa" . sub:assertion prov:hadPrimarySource pubmed:15531508; prov:wasDerivedFrom beldoc:, sub:_2 . } sub:pubinfo { this: dct:created "2014-07-03T14:30:29.437+02:00"^^xsd:dateTime; pav:createdBy orcid:0000-0001-6818-334X, orcid:0000-0002-1267-0234 . }
