Effects of the Imidazoline Binding Site Ligands, Idazoxan and Efaroxan, on the Viability of Insulin-Secreting BRIN-BD11 Cells (2003)
Journal Article

Context Certain imidazoline drugs stimulate insulin secretion acutely but their longer term effects on the viability of pancreatic beta-cells are less well characterised. Indeed, some reports have suggested that imidazolines can be toxic to beta-cel...

Regulation of T-Cell Apoptosis by Sequences Encoded at the Luca-15 Candidate Tumour Suppressor Locus (2001)
Journal Article

Imidazoline compounds protect against interleukin 1beta-induced beta-cell apoptosis. (2001)
Journal Article

Imidazoline compounds have been considered for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. We have now investigated the effects of imidazolines on interleukin (IL)-1beta-induced beta-cell apoptosis and the signal transduction pathways involved. Inhibition of C...

GNB2L1 (guanine nucleotide binding protein (G protein), beta polypeptide 2-like 1) (2011)
Journal Article

GNB2L1 encodes a cytosolic protein with a molecular mass of approximatively 35 kDa (317 amino acids). The protein has seven internal Trp-Asp 40 (WD40 domain) repeats. The WD40 repeats of RACK1/GNB2L1 are predicted to form a seven-bladed propeller str... Read More about GNB2L1 (guanine nucleotide binding protein (G protein), beta polypeptide 2-like 1).
