Abstract
Heterozygous peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPAR-gamma)-deficient (PPARgamma(+/-)) mice were protected from high-fat diet-induced insulin resistance. To determine the impact of systemic reduction of PPAR-gamma activity on beta-cell function, we investigated insulin secretion in PPARgamma(+/-) mice on a high-fat diet. Glucose-induced insulin secretion in PPARgamma(+/-) mice was impaired in vitro. The tissue triglyceride (TG)...
