Introduction: The molecular basis of exocytosis of secretory insulin-containing granules (SGs) during biphasic glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) of pancreatic β-cells remains unclear. Syntaxins (Syns) Syn-1A and Syn-4 are t-SNARE proteins situated on the plasma membrane that have been well studied to mediate insulin exocytosis. However, Syn-3, peculiarly more abundant in insulin SGs, has unclear function in GSIS.Methods/Designs: Confocal m...

Objective: To determine if autologous nonmyeloablative hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHSCT) was worthwhile to do in type 1 diabetes adolescents with diabetic ketoacidosis at diagnosis.Research Design and Methods: We enrolled 28 type 1 diabetes patients aged 1430 years in a prospective AHSCT phase II clinical trial. Hematopoietic stem cells were harvested from the peripheral blood following a pretreatment consisting of a combination of cy...
