Scaffolds for islets and stem cells differentiated into insulin-secreting cells
Frontiers in Bioscience, 2014 Embryonic/pluripotent stem cells offer the possibility of an unlimited source of cells to be differentiated into beta cells. This requires differentiating the stem cells into pancreatic progenitors by tissue culture, and then transplanting into recipients for the final stages of development into mature beta-cells.

Animal‐Free Setup of a 3D Mature Adipocyte‐Macrophage Co‐Culture to Induce Inflammation In Vitro
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.A completely animal‐free 3D co‐culture is developed using human fat cells and immune cells. Animal‐based materials are replaced with gellan gum hydrogel and a serum‐free medium. Immune cells are effectively activated, producing specific inflammatory signals.

E-cadherin expression is associated with somatostatin analogue response in acromegaly [PDF]
, 2018 Acromegaly is a rare disease resulting from hypersecretion of growth hormone (GH) and insulin‐like growth factor 1 (IGF1) typically caused by pituitary adenomas, which is associated with increased mortality and morbidity. Somatostatin analogues (SSAs)

How does thymus infection by coxsackievirus contribute to the pathogenesis of type 1 diabetes?
Frontiers in Immunology, 2015 Through synthesis and presentation of neuroendocrine self-antigens by major histocompatibility complex (MHC) proteins, thymic epithelial cells (TECs) play a crucial role in programming central immune self-tolerance to neuroendocrine functions.
