SW016789

SW016789 is a potent high-secretion inducer targeting VDAC1, which directly stimulates insulin secretion and calcium ion influx in β cells. It transiently induces endoplasmic reticulum stress (ER stress) without causing β cell death. The response it triggers is reversible and non-apoptotic, making SW016789 useful for studying β cell dysfunction in type 2 diabetes (T2DM) .
