Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Berta Serra-Navarro"
- Berta Serra-Navarro's research primarily focuses on the mechanisms involved in the establishment and expansion of functional β-cell mass during the postnatal period, which is crucial for maintaining glucose homeostasis throughout life.
- Her studies highlight the role of Gsα-dependent signaling pathways in the maturation and expansion of β-cells postnatally, indicating potential targets for therapeutic intervention in metabolic disorders.
- Serra-Navarro's work has also identified Wisp1, a circulating factor that promotes the proliferation of β-cells, suggesting that leveraging this factor could enhance therapeutic strategies aimed at increasing β-cell mass to prevent diabetes.
