the effects of 48-h preculture with 1.0 or 2.0 mmol/l free fatty acid (FFA) (2:1 oleate to

acid (FFA) levels can cause apoptosis of triglyceride-laden pancreatic β-cells as a result of the
formation of ceramides, which induce nitric oxide (NO)-dependent cell death. This “ ... Cited by 219 - Related articles - BL Direct - All 9 versions

together with hyperglycemia are synergistic in causing islet ß-cell damage because high glucose
inhibits fat oxidation and consequently lipid detoxification. The effects of 1–2 d culture of ... Cited by 174 - Related articles - BL Direct - All 5 versions
