Autophagy Involves in Differentiation of Insulin-Secreting Cells from Adipose Derived Stem Cells [PDF]
Cell Journal, 2021 Objective: Destruction of pancreatic beta-cells induces an insulin deficiency and causes type 1 diabetes. The role of autophagy in inducing insulin-secreting cells (ISCs) from adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (AMSCs) was investigated in the current

SNAP-25a and -25b isoforms are both expressed in insulin-secreting cells and can function in insulin secretion [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 1999 The tSNARE (the target-membrane soluble NSF-attachment protein receptor, where NSF is N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive fusion protein) synaptosomal-associated protein of 25 kDa (SNAP-25) is expressed in pancreatic B-cells and its cleavage by botulinum neurotoxin E (BoNT/E) abolishes stimulated secretion of insulin. In the nervous system, two SNAP-25 isoforms

Phosphorylation of SNAP-25 on serine-187 is induced by secretagogues in insulin-secreting cells, but is not correlated with insulin secretion [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 2002 The tSNARE (the target-membrane soluble NSF-attachment protein receptor, where NSF is N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive fusion protein) synaptosomal-associated protein of 25kDa (SNAP-25) is implicated in regulated insulin secretion. In pheochromocytoma PC12 cells, SNAP-25 is phosphorylated at Ser187, which lies in a region that is important for its function ...

Indian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2012 Background: Diabetics are incapable of producing insulin/have autoimmune mechanisms making it ineffective to control glucose secretion. We present a prospective study of glucose-sensitive insulin-secreting mesenchymal stem cells (IS-MSC) generated from ...

Bioactivity of Flavonoids on Insulin‐Secreting Cells [PDF]
Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, 2008 ABSTRACT: Flavonoids are usually found in fruits and other plant organs and therefore widely consumed. They are antioxidants, anti‐inflammatory, anticarcinogenic, and protective against coronary disease and metabolic disorders. These beneficial effects make them good candidates for the development of new functional foods with potential protective ...
