Beta-cell mass expansion during puberty involves serotonin signaling and determines glucose homeostasis in adulthood

A.-L. Castell, M. Ethier, G. Fergusson, C. Tremblay, C. Goubault, M. Baltz, D. Dal Soglio, J. Ghislain, V. Poitout

This study shows that puberty increases beta-cell proliferation via GH/serotonin signaling, and metabolic stress during puberty affects glucose homeostasis in adulthood.

Combined deletion of free fatty-acid receptors 1 and 4 minimally impacts glucose homeostasis in mice

M. L. Croze, A. Guillaume, M. Ethier, G. Fergusson, C. Tremblay, S. A. Campbell, H. Maachi, J. Ghislain, V. Poitout

This study shows that deleting both FFAR1 and FFAR4 in mice only slightly affects glucose homeostasis, with minor changes in fasting glucose and glucose tolerance.

HB-EGF Signaling is Required for Glucose-Induced Pancreatic β-Cell Proliferation in Rats

H. Maachi, G. Fergusson, M. Ethier, G. N. Brill, L. S. Katz, L. B. Honig, M. R. Metukuri, D. K. Scott, J. Ghislain, V. Poitout

This study shows HB-EGF signaling is essential for glucose-induced β-cell proliferation in rats, mediated through EGFR and ChREBP pathways.
