Read MoreProtection Against Type 1 Diabetes Development in Mice With 4E-BP2 Deletion
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease characterized by β-cell destruction promoted by autoreactive T cells. Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E (eIF4E)–binding protein 1 (4E-BP1) and 4E-BP2 are translational repressors and downstream targets of mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). Activation of the 4E-BP2/eIF4E pathway by 4E-BP2 deletion promotes translation initiation, inducing β-cell […]
