Gene expression profiles of beta-cell enriched tissue obtained by Laser Capture Microdissection from subjects with type 2 diabetes

Changes in gene expression in pancreatic beta-cells from type 2 diabetes could provide insights into their abnormal insulin secretion and beta-cell turnover. The laser capture microdissection technique was used to acquire beta-cells from pancreatic tissue sections obtained from type 2 diabetic (T2D) and non-diabetic controls. We found that 4% of analyzed transcripts were differentially expressed between the two groups at the lower confidence bound cutoff of 1.2, and, among the differentially exp...
