Participants: Ninety-five eyes from 95 patients were evaluated: 40 from bilaterally normal patients (controls), 40 from patients with SKC, and 15 from patients with manifest KC.
Glucose and paracrine regulation on α-cells, particularly with respect to sex differences, remains unclear. Hence, we imaged islets of GluCre:GCaMP6f mice in pancreatic slices, additionally loaded with a red Ca²⁺ dye, to precisely interrogate Ca²⁺ dynamics in α-cells and the adjacent β- and δ-cells. During a glucose ramp (1.
