Project Details
Description
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is reaching epidemic proportions throughout the world and is a major burden to healthcare systems and societies worldwide. The objective of this proposal is to explore the novel hypothesis that Rap1a regulates hepatic glucose production and contributes to development of T2D. Successful completion of these studies will reveal a new mechanism involved in the regulation of glucose homeostasis and may offer therapeutic targets for the growing T2D epidemic.
