OBJECTIVE: The cWnt activator, R-spondin1 (Rspo1), regulates β-cell growth, function, and neogenesis, although its role in conditions such as streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetes is unknown. We hypothesized that Rspo1 deficiency enhances β-cell neogenesis in STZ-induced diabetes. METHODS: Wild-type (Rspo1) and knockout (Rspo1) mice were...
