During obesity, the increment in beta cell mass in response to the rising demand for insulin is essential to maintain normal glucose homeostasis. However, the precise cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in beta cell mass plasticity remain poorly understood. The Wnt signalling pathway has been suggested as one possible modulator of beta cell proliferation, which represents the principal process involved in beta cell mass expansion. Here, we sought to determine the mechanisms involved in beta cell mass proliferation using diet-induced obese rats.

Downregulation of Sfrp5 promotes beta cell proliferation during obesity in the rat
