Cancer survivors who receive cisplatin chemotherapy have an increased risk of type 2 diabetes, but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate whether cisplatin impacts β-cell health and function, thereby contributing to increased type 2 diabetes risk in cancer survivors. In vivo and in vitro cisplatin exposure dysregulated insulin secretion in male and female mice. In vitro cisplatin exposure reduced oxygen consumption, impaired β-cell exocytotic capacity, and altered expression of genes within the insulin secretion pathway in mouse islets. Understanding how chemotherapeutic drugs cause β-cell injury is critical for designing targeted interventions to reduce the risk of cancer survivors developing type 2 diabetes after treatment.
