Suppression of free fatty acid receptor 1 expression in pancreatic β-cells in obese type 2 diabetic db/db mice: a potential role of pancreatic and duodenal homeobox factor 1.

In conclusion, Ffar1 expression is markedly down-regulated under diabetic conditions which is accompanied by decreased expression of Pdx1. Furthermore, it is likely that Pdx1 is a regulator of Ffar1 expression in β-cells. PMID: 30333365 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
