Functional and morphological modifications induced in rat islets by pentamidine and other diamidines in vitro.

abstract：AIMS/HYPOTHESIS:In the UK, more than one million people have undiagnosed diabetes and an additional five million are at high risk of developing the disease. Given that early identification of these people is key for both primary and secondary prevention, new screening approaches are needed. Since spouses resemble each ...
