The function of islet macrophages is poorly understood. They promote glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) in lean mice, however, the underlying mechanism has remained unclear. We show that activation of the free fatty acid receptor FFAR4 on islet macrophages leads to interleukin-6 (IL-6) r...
Transcriptome sequencing of solitary fibrous tumors / hemangiopericytomas from a variety of anatomic sites revealed recurrent gene fusions between two genes, NAB2 and STAT6. All SFTs examined exhibited an in-frame fusion transcript encoding a fusion protein containing the EGR1 interaction domain ...
