The pancreatic islet: a micro-organ in control [PDF]
The islets of Langerhans constitute the endocrine pancreas which regulates blood glucose homeostasis and islet dysfunction results in diabetes. Each of the pancreatic islets constitutes an entire micro-organ with intricate cell to cell interactions and ...

Long-term cultures of human pancreatic islets in self-assembling peptides hydrogels
Human pancreatic islets transplantation is an experimental therapeutic treatment for Type I Diabetes. Limited islets lifespan in culture remains the main drawback, due to the absence of native extracellular matrix as mechanical support after their ...

Generation of glucose-responsive functional islets with a three-dimensional structure from mouse fetal pancreatic cells and iPS cells in vitro. [PDF]
Islets of Langerhans are a pancreatic endocrine compartment consisting of insulin-producing β cells together with several other hormone-producing cells. While some insulin-producing cells or immature pancreatic cells have been generated in vitro from ES ...

Dopamine modulates insulin release and is involved in the survival of rat pancreatic beta cells. [PDF]
The local synthesis of dopamine and its effects on insulin release have been described in isolated islets. Thus, it may be accepted that dopamine exerts an auto-paracrine regulation of insulin secretion from pancreatic beta cells.
