Veiled Potential of Secretagogin in Diabetes: Correlation or Coincidence?
Trends in Endocrinology and Metabolism : TEM 2019 Februrary 14
Secretagogin (SCGN) is a calcium sensor protein enriched in neuroendocrine cells in general and pancreatic β-cells in particular. SCGN regulates insulin secretion through several Ca2+ -dependent interactions. Recent studies implicate SCGN in the β-cell physiology and extracellular insulin function, making it an intriguing candidate in diabetes research. Here, we propose a conjoining theme of diversified SCGN function in diabetes pathology. In our opinion, SCGN is an attractive therapeutic candidate ascribed by its role in β-cell maintenance and neuronal functions and in the efficacy of insulin. To scrutinize the therapeutic prospects of SCGN, we abridge putative diabetes-related properties of SCGN and put forth strategies to determine the precise role of SCGN in the pathogenesis/preclusion of diabetes.
