Expression of miRNA-29 in Pancreatic β-Cells Promotes Inflammation and Diabetes Via TRAF3

Abstract

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is recognized as a chronic low-grade inflammatory disease characterized by insulin resistance and pancreatic β-cell dysfunction; however, the underlying molecular mechanism remains unclear. Here, we report a new β-cell–macrophage crosstalk pathway mediated by the “miRNA-29-TNF receptor-associated factor 3 (TRAF3)” axis. β-cell specific transgenic miR-29a/b-1 mice are predisposed to develop glucose intolerance and …
