Glutamine Metabolism Supports α cell Mass and Glucagon Secretion

Anna Marie R Schornack, Tyler J. Rodgers, Matthew Shou…·E. Danielle Dean

This study identifies glutaminase as critical for α cell mass and glucagon secretion by linking glutamine metabolism to amino acid sensing and growth.

Interruption of glucagon signaling augments islet non-alpha cell proliferation in SLC7A2- and mTOR-dependent manners

Katie Colbert Coate, Chunhua Dai, A. K. Singh…·E. Danielle Dean

This study shows that blocking glucagon signaling increases non-alpha cell proliferation in islets, dependent on SLC7A2 and mTORC1, across multiple species and models.
