Abstract

Presents research which described the role of glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) in the development of diabetes in mice. Effects of beta cell-specific suppression of GAD expression; Impact of persistent GAD expression; Effects of complete suppression of beta cell GAD expression; GAD expression in the development of autoimmune diabetes in mice; Possible therapeutic value of GAD modulation.
