Abstract: Insulinoma-glucagonoma clone 20 can express at least 6 isoforms in human cells. These isoforms can affect cell apoptosis and proliferation through apoptosis related signaling pathway, such as TRAIL or TNF signaling pathways. Furthermore, insulinoma-glucagonoma clone 20, as a GTP-GDP exchange factor, participates in the transportation of nerve synaptophysins.
