This study shows that copper deficiency in skeletal muscle leads to mitochondrial dysfunction and hyperfusion via MTCH2, and restoring copper rescues these defects.

This study shows that Complexin 2 inhibits glucagon and somatostatin secretion and disrupts paracrine inhibition of insulin secretion in pancreatic islets.

This paper identifies a brown adipose tissue-secreted protein fraction that improves glycemia in T1D mice independently of insulin, with nidogen-2 as a key component that inhibits glucagon secretion.
