1 As SREBP-1c is also expressed in beta cells, we hypothesized that activation of SREBP-1c could be a part of the mechanism by which saturated fatty acids induce beta-cell lipotoxicity. Fatty Acids sterol regulatory element binding transcription factor 1 Mus musculus

3 Saturated fatty acids, such as palmitic acid (PA), impair insulin secretion through SREBP-1c activation, whereas polyunsaturated fatty acids including eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) restore PA-suppressed insulin secretion through suppression of SREBP-1c. Fatty Acids sterol regulatory element binding transcription factor 1 Mus musculus
