1 The purpose of this study was to describe the effect of different iron and/or glucose concentrations over Mfn2, Bax, and Bcl2 expressions in a beta-pancreatic cell line (MIN6 cells). Iron BCL2-associated X protein Mus musculus
2 Our study revealed that high glucose/Fe concentrations in MIN6 cells induced an increase of the Bcl2/Bax ratio, an indicator of increased cell apoptosis. Iron BCL2-associated X protein Mus musculus
