1 21029313 Several recent studies have shown that Vhl deletion in ?-cells results in Hif1? activation, impaired glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) and glucose intolerance.
2 21242957 We generated ?-cell-specific VHL-knockout mice using the Cre-loxP recombination system driven by the rat insulin promoter to assess the role of VHL in glucose homeostasis and ?-cell function.
3 21242957 VHL deletion in the pancreatic ?-cells led to impaired glucose tolerance due to defects in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion and ?-cell mass with age.
4 21242957 VHL-knockout islets had decreased GLUT2, but increased glucose transporter 1 and vascular endothelial growth factor expression.
5 21242957 Given that erythropoietin (EPO) is a target gene of the HIF pathway, which is not expressed in islets, we tested whether activating EPO signaling by systemic administration with recombinant human EPO (rHuEPO) can overcome the ?-cell defects that occurred with VHL loss.
