Therefore, alterations in pancreatic beta cell function observed ex vivo in the absence of TCF7L2 in adipocyte have no impact on whole body glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. A striking finding in the present study is that TCF7L2 is required in adipose tissue for normal incretin production and insulin secretion: we reveal that decreased Tcf7l2 expression in mature adipocytes leads to lowered circulating levels of GLP-1 and GIP ( Fig.4a and b) . ./cache/cord-103703-t03r6ny8.txt ./txt/cord-103703-t03r6ny8.txt
