One thousand faces of langerhans islets [PDF]
Studies with different strains of Syrian hamsters and Syrian golden hamsters have revealed the remarkable potential of islet cells to undergo orthotopic and heterotopic metaplasia. The most common spontaneous change included the development of hepatocytes in aged and malnourished hamsters.

Insulin Treatment of Mice Recipients Preserves β-Cell Function in Porcine Islet Transplantation
Encapsulation of islets of Langerhans confers protection against cell-mediated immune destruction and so should allow the transplantation of islets without immunosuppression.

It has been recently proposed that exposure to polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) is a risk factor to type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2). We investigated this hypothesis using long-term in vivo PCB126 exposure to rats addressing metabolic, cellular and ...

Size Distribution of Mouse Langerhans Islets [PDF]
Pancreatic beta-cells are clustered in islets of Langerhans, which are typically a few hundred micrometers in a variety of mammals. In this study, we propose a theoretical model for the growth of pancreatic islets and derive the islet size distribution, based on two recent observations: First, the neogenesis of new islets becomes negligible after some ...

Entrapment of Cultured Pancreas Islets in Three-Dimensional Collagen Matrices
In vitro culture of islets of Langerhans decreases their immunogenecity, presumably by eliminating passenger leukocytes and other Ia+ presenting cells within the islets.

Negative Feedback Synchronizes Islets of Langerhans [PDF]
Insulin is released from the pancreas in pulses with a period of ~ 5 min. These oscillatory insulin levels are essential for proper liver utilization and perturbed pulsatility is observed in type 2 diabetes. What coordinates the many islets of Langerhans throughout the pancreas to produce unified oscillations of insulin secretion?

The creation of a cell-engineered pancreatic construct (CEPC) from islets of Langerhans and biocompatible matrix carrier (framework/scaffold), which imitates the native microenvironment of pancreatic tissue, is an approach to the treatment of type I ...
