Isolation of Adult Porcine Islets of Langerhans
While human islet allotransplantation is limited due to the shortage of donors, pig islet xenotransplantation appears to be a possible alternative. Enzymatic digestion is the method most commonly used for adult pig islet isolation, but since the description of the semiautomated isolation technique in the late 1980s, yields of pig islet isolations have ...

Abstract Elevated beta‐hydroxybutyrate (BHB) is a marker for ketoacidosis. Post‐mortem values for the diagnosis of fatal ketoacidosis and the associated clinical and histologic findings are limited in the pediatric population. A retrospective case series of pediatric autopsy records and histology slides was conducted.

Dapagliflozin stimulates glucagon secretion at high glucose: experiments and mathematical simulations of human A-cells. [PDF]
Glucagon is one of the main regulators of blood glucose levels and dysfunctional stimulus secretion coupling in pancreatic A-cells is believed to be an important factor during development of diabetes.

ABSTRACT The integrity of the pancreatic islet microvasculature is critical for endocrine function, yet it is progressively compromised by glucotoxicity in diabetes. While matrix metalloproteinases are implicated, the role of stromelysin‐1 as a potential upstream driver of endothelial dysfunction remains poorly defined.

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 ...

The Cells of the Islets of Langerhans. [PDF]
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 diabetes.
