Metabolism of Glucose in the Islets of Langerhans
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1968 Abstract The levels of glycogen, glucose, glucose-6-P, the sum of fructose diphosphate plus dihydroxyacetone-P, ATP, and the pyridine nucleotides were measured in endocrine and exocrine tissue of the pancreas of obese hyperglycemic mice. Sorbitol was determined in both types of tissue after a single intravenous injection of the compound.

Collection of islets of Langerhans using an equilibrium method
BioTechniques, 2013 Here we present a convenient method for easy hand selection of enzymatically isolated small tissues such as islets of Langerhans. Islets are continuously collected in a micropipette tip connected to a peristaltic pump.

The effect of ghrelin on Kiss-1 and KissR gene transcription and insulin secretion in rat islets of Langerhans and CRI-D2 cell line [PDF]
Iranian Journal of Basic Medical Sciences, 2017 Objective(s): Ghrelin is a peptide hormone that has been shown to have numerous central and peripheral effects. The central effects including GH secretion, food intake, and energy homeostasis are partly mediated by Kiss1- KissR signaling pathway. Ghrelin

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Background CD163 is a scavenger receptor predominantly expressed on the surfaces of macrophages in various mammalian species and is a marker of anti‐inflammatory (M2‐like) macrophages. High density of CD163‐positive tumor‐associated macrophages (TAMs) is associated with worse prognosis in various patient tumors.

Streptozotocin induced hyperglycemia in the axolotl
Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Background Diabetes is a group of diseases characterized by loss of β cell mass and/or function, resulting in hyperglycemia. With no established curative treatment, this has initiated research in β cell regeneration. Current animal models have either limited regenerative capacity (mice) or small size and evolutionary distance from humans ...

Molecular Nutrition &Food Research, EarlyView.Male and female mice were fed different diets for up to 24 weeks to study the effects of phytosterols (PS) on weight gain and brain immune cells. PS reduced weight gain in HFD‐fed mice. Microglia were isolated from brains and analyzed, revealing no diet‐driven inflammation changes, but differences based on sex and age.
