Zinc, zinc transporters and diabetes [PDF]
The role of zinc in islet function has recently achieved new attention as a consequence of the identification of zinc transporter 8 (ZNT8) in islets, and the association of mutations in the gene for this zinc transporter with glucose intolerance and type 2 diabetes. ZNT8 is also an autoantigen associated with the appearance of type 1 diabetes. A number
