1 | Uncoupling protein 2 (UCP2), by virtue of its mitochondrial proton leak activity and consequent negative effect on ATP production, impairs glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. | Adenosine Triphosphate | uncoupling protein 2 | Homo sapiens |
2 | Uncoupling protein 2 (UCP2), by virtue of its mitochondrial proton leak activity and consequent negative effect on ATP production, impairs glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. | Adenosine Triphosphate | uncoupling protein 2 | Homo sapiens |
3 | This study demonstrates that endogenously produced mitochondrial superoxide activates UCP2-mediated proton leak, thus lowering ATP levels and impairing glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. | Adenosine Triphosphate | uncoupling protein 2 | Homo sapiens |
