Abstract

Metal transporter SLC39A14/ZIP14 is downregulated in pancreatic islets of patients with T2D and mouse models of HFD- or db/db-induced obesity. However, the function of ZIP14-mediated intracellular zinc trafficking in β cells is unknown. Our analyses revealed that SLC39A14 is the only Zn transporter expressed abundantly in human β cells besides SLC30A8. Within the β cells, ZIP14 is localized on the endoplasmic reticulum and serves as a negative regulator of insulin secretion, providing a potential therapeutic target for T2D.
