In pancreatic β-cells, uncoupling protein 2 (UCP2) influences mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation and insulin secretion. Here, we show that α-cells express significantly higher levels of UCP2 than do β-cells. Greater mitochondrial UCP2-related uncoupling was observed in α-cells compared with β-cells and was accompanied by a lower oxidative phos...
