Glucolipotoxicity Alters Lipid Partitioning and Causes Mitochondrial Dysfunction, Cholesterol, and Ceramide Deposition and Reactive Oxygen Species Production in INS832/13 ß-Cells

Elevated glucose and saturated fatty acids synergize in inducing apoptosis in INS832/13 cells and in human islet cells. In order to gain insight into the molecular mechanism(s) of glucolipotoxicity (Gltox), gene profiling and metabolic analyses were performed in INS832/13 cells cultured at 5 or 20 m...
