Antioxidant Effects of Eugenol on Oxidative Stress Induced by Hydrogen Peroxide in Islets of Langerhans Isolated from Male Mouse [PDF]
International Journal of Hepatology, 2020 Background. The antioxidant system in islets of Langerhans is weak, which can lead to diabetes. Meanwhile, the main component of cloves that produce antioxidant effects is eugenol.

The Cells of the Islets of Langerhans. [PDF]
J Clin Med, 2018 Islets of Langerhans are islands of endocrine cells scattered throughout the pancreas. A number of new studies have pointed to the potential for conversion of non-β islet cells in to insulin-producing β-cells to replenish β-cell mass as a means to treat ...

Epigenetic Changes in Islets of Langerhans Preceding the Onset of Diabetes. [PDF]
Diabetes, 2020 The identification of individuals with a high risk of developing type 2 diabetes (T2D) is fundamental for prevention. Here, we used a translational approach and prediction criteria to identify changes in DNA methylation visible before the development of ...

Potential of [11C]UCB-J as a PET tracer for islets of Langerhans [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 Biomarkers for the measurement of islets of Langerhans could help elucidate the etiology of diabetes. Synaptic vesicle glycoprotein 2 A (SV2A) is a potential marker reported to be localized in the endocrine pancreas.

Constitutive nitric oxide synthase (cNOS) activity in Langerhans islets from streptozotocin diabetic rats [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 1998 Nitric oxide synthase activity was measured in Langerhans islets isolated from control and streptozotocin diabetic rats. The activity of the enzyme was linear up to 150 µg of protein from control rats and was optimal at 0.1 µM calcium, when it was ...
