Proteomic Analysis Reveals a Mitochondrial Remodeling of βTC3 Cells in Response to Nanotopography

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020
Recently, using cluster-assembled zirconia substrates with tailored roughness produced by supersonic cluster beam deposition, we demonstrated that β cells can sense nanoscale features of the substrate and can translate these stimuli into a ...

Reprogramming—Evolving Path to Functional Surrogate β-Cells

open access: yesCells, 2022
Numerous cell sources are being explored to replenish functional β-cell mass since the proof-of -concept for cell therapy of diabetes was laid down by transplantation of islets. Many of these cell sources have been shown to possess a degree of plasticity

FUNCTIONAL EXAMINATION OF MICROENCAPSULATED BIOENGINEERED INSULIN-SECRETING BETA-CELLS

open access: yes, 2001
Clonal insulin-secreting BRIN-BD11 cells engineered by electrofusion were encapsulated inside natrium alginate beads and cultured in RPMI 1640 culture media.

Insulin secretion by a transplantable rat islet cell tumour [PDF]

open access: yesDiabetologia, 1981
Investigation of the subcellular and molecular components of insulin secretion has been made difficult by the small quantities of material available. The recent development of a transplantable rat islet cell tumour of high insulin content and state of differentiation suggested a system more amenable to analysis.

Combined 5‐aminolevulinic acid and ferric ammonium citrate treatment promotes hair follicle growth by activating dermal papilla cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
5‐Aminolevulinic acid combined with ferric ammonium citrate (5‐ALA/FAC) stimulates dermal papilla cell activity and promotes hair follicle growth. The treatment enhances ERK and AKT signaling, increases hair‐inductive gene expression, and restores dermal papilla function suppressed by dihydrotestosterone and oxidative stress, resulting in enhanced hair

Recent Advances in Obesity-induced Inflammation and Insulin Resistance.

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2013
It has been demonstrated in rodents and humans that chronic inflammation characterized by macrophage infiltration occurs mainly in adipose tissue or liver during obesity, in which activation of immune cells is closely associated with insulin sensitivity.

Derivation and characterization of retinal pigment epithelium from urine‐derived iPSCs

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Age‐related macular degeneration causes vision loss via RPE dysfunction and loss. Traditional iPSC therapies rely on invasive biopsies, limiting scalability. Here, we utilize urine‐derived stem cells as an accessible source to generate u‐iPSCs, successfully differentiated into pigmented RPE. This “Urine‐to‐Retina” platform provides a promising path for

Rhythm of the beta-cell oscillator is not governed by a single regulator: multiple systems contribute to oscillatory behavior

open access: yes, 2007
Pulsatile insulin output, paralleled by oscillations in intracellular Ca(2+), reflect oscillating metabolism within beta-cells in response to secretory fuels.

Characterization of glucose transport in an insulin-secreting cell line [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 1987
The rat insulinoma-derived RINm5F cell line retains many differentiated functions of islet beta-cells. However, it fails to recognize glucose as an insulin secretagogue in the physiological concentration range. With this cell line, glucose-transport kinetics were investigated, by using a double-label technique with the non-metabolizable glucose ...
