Ex vivo generation of glucose sensitive insulin secreting mesenchymal stem cells derived from human adipose tissue

open access: yesIndian 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 ...

Role of mTOR signaling in tumor microenvironment. An overview [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway regulates major processes by integrating a variety of exogenous cues, including diverse environmental inputs in the tumor microenvironment (TME).

A Short-activating RNA Oligonucleotide Targeting the Islet β-cell Transcriptional Factor MafA in CD34+ Cells

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids, 2013
Upon functional loss of insulin producing islet β-cells, some patients with diabetes become dependent on life-long insulin supplementation therapy. Bioengineering surrogate insulin producing cells is an alternative replacement strategy. We have developed

How does thymus infection by coxsackievirus contribute to the pathogenesis of type 1 diabetes?

open access: yesFrontiers 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.

E-cadherin and cell adhesion: a role in architecture and function in the pancreatic islet [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Background/Aims: The efficient secretion of insulin from beta-cells requires extensive intra-islet communication. The cell surface adhesion protein epithelial (E)-cadherin (ECAD) establishes and maintains epithelial tissues such as the islets of ...

Adenosine triphosphate is co-secreted with glucagon-like peptide-1 to modulate intestinal enterocytes and afferent neurons

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) is released from intestinal L-cells following nutrient uptake and enhances insulin release as well as promotes satiety. Here, the authors demonstrate that GLP-1 secreting cells release ATP and that this stimulates nodose ...
