Fields et al. investigate the impact of vitamin B6 deficiency on islet β-cell proliferation during pregnancy, using vitamin B6-deficient mice. They find that gestational vitamin B6 deficiency decreases serotonin levels in pancreatic islets and reduces β-cell proliferation, showing that vitamin B6 deficiency regulates maternal glucose tolerance in a serotonin-dependent manner.
