Deteriorating beta-cell function is a common feature of type 2 diabetes. In this review, we briefly address the regulation of beta-cell function, and discuss some of the main determinants of beta-cell failure. We will focus on the role of interactions between the genetic background and metabolic environment (insulin resistance, fuel supply and flux as well as metabolic signaling). We present data on the function of the strongest common diabetes risk variant, the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs7903146 in TCF7L2. As also mirrored by its interaction with glycemia on insulin secretion, this SNP in large part confers resistance against the incretin effect. Genetic influence on insulin secretion also interacts with free fatty acids, as evidenced by data on rs1573611 in FFAR1. Several medications marketed by now or currently under development for diabetes treatment engage these pathways, and therapeutic implications from these findings are soon to be expected.
