) high UPR and low insulin gene expression. The latter state was enriched for proliferating cells. Stressed human β-cells do not dedifferentiate and show little propensity for apoptosis. These data suggest that human β-cells transition between states with high rates of biosynthesis to fulfill the body's insulin requirements to maintain normal blood glucose levels and UPR-mediated recovery from ER stress due to high insulin production.
