A conserved rule for pancreatic islet organization. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Morphogenesis, spontaneous formation of organism structure, is essential for life. In the pancreas, endocrine α, β, and δ cells are clustered to form islets of Langerhans, the critical micro-organ for glucose homeostasis.

Expression and function of alpha(v)beta(3) and alpha(v)beta(5) integrins in the developing pancreas: roles in the adhesion and migration of putative endocrine progenitor cells. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions play a critical role in tissue morphogenesis and in homeostasis of adult tissues. The integrin family of adhesion receptors regulates cellular interactions with the extracellular matrix, which provides three ...

Pancreatic islet (of Langerhans) revisited.

open access: yesHistology and histopathology, 2019
One hundred and fifty years ago, Paul Langerhans described what would come to be known as pancreatic 'islet of Langerhans'. Since then, we have accumulated knowledge about the pancreatic islet, the cells that exist there and the hormones secreted by these cells.

A Case of Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumor Growing Intraductal Extension toward the Main Pancreatic Duct Complicated by Thrombocytopenia: Diagnostic Challenges and Management Strategy

open access: yesDEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT We present a rare and diagnostically challenging case of a pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor (pNET) with intraductal growth into the main pancreatic duct (MPD), complicated by severe thrombocytopenia due to myelodysplastic syndrome. A 37‐year‐old male presented with thrombocytopenia.

Antidiabetic effect of honey feeding in noise induced hyperglycemic rat: involvement of oxidative stress [PDF]

open access: yesIranian Journal of Basic Medical Sciences, 2015
Objective(s):In this study the effect of oral administration of honey on serum glucose, lipids, stress oxidative markers, and morphology of langerhans islets in noise induced hyperglycemic rats was investigated.

Morphological analysis of isolated rat pancreatic islets cultured under standard culture technique and with biopolymer microstructured collagen‑containing hydrogel

open access: yesВестник трансплантологии и искусственных органов, 2017
Introduction. Extracellular matrix play an essential role in providing structural integrity and physiological support to Langerhans islets in pancreas. Imitation of the native microenvironment can be useful for viability of isolated pancreatic islets in ...

Exercise Ameliorates Endocrine Pancreas Damage Induced by Chronic Cola Drinking in Rats [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Purpose: This study evaluates whether the daily practice of an exercise routine might protect from endocrine pancreas damage in cola drinking rats. Methods: Forty-eight Wistar rats were randomly assigned to 4 groups depending on a) beverage consumption ...

Kisspeptin Restores Placental mTOR Signaling and Improves Glucose Homeostasis Mediators Disrupted by Maternal Hypothyroidism in Rats

open access: yesActa Physiologica, Volume 242, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Reduced placental mTOR signaling is associated with intrauterine growth restriction and impaired maternal and placental metabolism. Since maternal hypothyroidism induces intrauterine growth restriction, and maternal treatment with kisspeptin‐10 (Kp10) has been shown to improve feto‐placental development in hypothyroid rats, this study ...

Constitutive nitric oxide synthase (cNOS) activity in Langerhans islets from streptozotocin diabetic rats

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 1998
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 ...
