The combined effect of magnetic and electric fields using on/off infrared light on the blood sugar level and the diameter of Langerhans islets of diabetic mice [PDF]

Veterinary World, 2020
Background and Aim: At present, diabetes is treated with oral antidiabetic medicines, such as sulfonylureas and thiazolidine, as well as insulin injection. However, these methods have several shortcomings.

Differentiation of pancreatic endocrine islets in buffalo fetus

Indian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2020
Pancreas of 24 buffalo foetii collected from abattoir and veterinary clinics, GADVASU, Ludhiana were studied. The buffalo foetii were divided into three groups after measuring their CVRL, viz.

The pancreatic islet: a micro-organ in control [PDF]

CellR4, 2021
The islets of Langerhans constitute the endocrine pancreas which regulates blood glucose homeostasis and islet dysfunction results in diabetes. Each of the pancreatic islets constitutes an entire micro-organ with intricate cell to cell interactions and ...

Multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells enhance insulin secretion from human islets via N-cadherin interaction and prolong function of transplanted encapsulated islets in mice

Stem Cell Research & Therapy, 2017
Background Multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) enhance viability and function of islets of Langerhans. We aimed to examine the interactions between human MSC and human islets of Langerhans that influence the function of islets.

Transplante isogênico de ilhotas de Langerhans no fígado de ratos: metodologia para separação e purificação das ilhotas de Langerhans Isogenic islet transplantation on the rat liver: Method for isolation and purification of the rat islets

Arquivos de Gastroenterologia, 2000
A maior indicação do transplante de pâncreas ou de ilhotas de Langerhans é o diabetes mellitus do tipo I. O processo deve suprir as necessidades de insulina mantendo os níveis glicêmicos dentro da normalidade.

The ‘Islets of Langerhans’ of the pancreas. [PDF]

Proceedings of the Royal Society of London, 1904
These structures were first described by Langerhans in 1869. They have since been found by many observers in the pancreas of every species of mammal, bird, reptile, and amphibian in which they have been looked for. Kühne and Lea first recognised the peculiarly rich plexus of wide blood-capillaries in the islets.

Role of YAP and TAZ in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and in stellate cells associated with cancer and chronic pancreatitis. [PDF]

, 2015
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is characterized by a fibrotic and inflammatory microenvironment that is formed primarily by activated, myofibroblast-like, stellate cells.
