Abstract
⺠The impact of UCP-2 over expression on mitochondrial function is controversial. ⺠We tested mitochondrial functions at defined levels of overexpression. ⺠We find minor increases of fatty acid oxidation and uncoupling. ⺠Effects were seen only at high level (fourfold) of over expression. ⺠Hence it is doubtful whether these effects are of importance in diabetes.
