Islets of Langerhans

2015
Adult stem cells are unspecialized cells with the capacity to differentiate into many different cell types in the body. These cells together with the progenitor cells involve in the tissue repair processes and maintain the functionality of the tissue in which they are found.

Vitrification of human islets of Langerhans

Cryobiology, 1987
Cryopreservation of human islets of Langerhans by vitrification was studied. Isolated islets were divided into four groups: (1) control islets which were cultured for 6 days, (2) islets which were vitrified after 2 days of culture, (3) control islets which were cultured for 10-13 days, and (4) islets which were vitrified after 6-9 days of culture ...

Microcirculation in the islets of langerhans of the mouse

The Anatomical Record, 1963
AbstractA technique for the study of microcirculation in living islets, using quartz rod and cinephotomicrography, is presented, together with results of a study of insular microcirculation. With this technique, conditions are standard, results are reproducible and the findings are recorded permanently. The pancreas, bathed constantly in Locke‐Ringer's

Neuropeptides in the Control of the Islets of Langerhans

1983
Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the functions of neuropeptides in the control of the islets of Langerhans. The pancreatic islets of Langerhans are the major regulatory centers involved in blood glucose homeostasis. Each consists of a complex of intimately linked endocrine cells capable of responding to a wide variety of metabolic, neural ...

Culture of the islets of Langerhans for transplantation

The Japanese Journal of Surgery, 1982
The isolated islets of Langerhans are the most available donors for transplantation. As the preservation of the isolated islets is difficult, we attempted to keep these tissues viable by use of an organ culture. Islets of Langerhans from adult Wistar rats were isolated by a collagenase technique and cultured in air-CO2 (95-5%) incubator at 37 degrees C.

Synthesis of glycosaminoglycans by islets of Langerhans

Life Sciences, 1988
Incorporation of (35S)-sulfate into glycosaminoglycans (GAG) of toadfish islets of Langerhans in vitro was examined. (35S)-sulfated GAG were synthesized by a component of the microsomal fraction, and subsequently transferred to the secretion granules, mitochondria and nuclei.

Glucoreceptor Mechanisms in Islets of Langerhans

Diabetes, 1972
A widely accepted concept has been that metabolites of glucose or factors associated with glucose metabolism, rather than glucose itself, trigger insulin release from the β cells. If this concept is correct, levels of metabolites or cofactors or of both should change within seconds of the glucose pulse.

Multiple Transplantations of Islets of Langerhans

European Surgical Research, 2008
In 6 diabetic rats about 1,000 isolated islets of Langerhans were transplanted into the liver with little effect on the uninsulinism and hyperglycemia. Subsequently, a second transplantation resulted in a decrease of blood sugar to normal and in a reversal of the loss in body weight. Finally, in animals who had reversed to diabetes again, a third islet

Imaging of the β-cells of the islets of Langerhans

Diabetes Research and Clinical Practice, 2012
The major aim of this paper is to review the present status of the techniques for the non-invasive imaging and quantification of insulin-producing pancreatic islet β-cells. Emphasis is placed on both the expansion of prior work already considered in a prior review and novel achievements.
