Transglutaminase in the life and death of the pancreatic β-cell [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Tissue transglutaminase (TG2) is a ubiquitous enzyme that catalyses both the Ca2+-dependent formation of protein cross-links via intermolecular isopeptide bonds, and the Ca2+-independent hydrolysis of GTP.

Interleukin-33-Activated Islet-Resident Innate Lymphoid Cells Promote Insulin Secretion through Myeloid Cell Retinoic Acid Production [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Pancreatic-islet inflammation contributes to the failure of β cell insulin secretion during obesity and type 2 diabetes. However, little is known about the nature and function of resident immune cells in this context or in homeostasis.

Neutron diffraction reveals sequence-specific membrane insertion of pre-fibrillar islet amyloid polypeptide and inhibition by rifampicin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Human islet amyloid polypeptide (hIAPP) forms amyloid deposits in non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). Pre-fibrillar hIAPP oligomers (in contrast to monomeric IAPP or mature fibrils) increase membrane permeability, suggesting an important ...

Engineered vasculature induces functional maturation of pluripotent stem cell-derived islet organoids

open access: yes
Blood vessels play a critical role in pancreatic islet function, yet current methods for deriving islet organoids from human pluripotent stem cells (SC-islets) lack vasculature.

Uncontrolled insulin secretion from a childhood pancreatic β-cell adenoma is not due to the functional loss of ATP-sensitive potassium channels

open access: yes, 2002
We report the case of an 8-year-old child who presented with severe hyperinsulinaemic hypoglycaemia due to a pancreatic islet cell adenoma. In vivo, there was no beneficial response to the hyperglycaemia-inducing agent diazoxide and as a consequence the ...
