Type 2 diabetes disrupts circadian orchestration of lipid metabolism and membrane fluidity in human pancreatic islets

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2022
Recent evidence suggests that circadian clocks ensure temporal orchestration of lipid homeostasis and play a role in pathophysiology of metabolic diseases in humans, including type 2 diabetes (T2D).

Digital Imaging as a Possible Approach in Evaluation of Islet Yield

open access: yesCell Transplantation, 2003
Digital image analysis (DIA) is a new method in assessment of islet amount, which is expected to provide reliable and consistent results. We compared this method with conventional counting of small numbers of rat islets.

Intraperitoneal injection of cell-engineered pancreas in rats with experimental type i diabetes (preliminary results)

open access: yesВестник трансплантологии и искусственных органов, 2023
Creation of a bioartificial pancreas, including a cell-engineered construct (CEC) formed from pancreatic islets (islets of Langerhans) and a biocompatible matrix mimicking the native microenvironment of pancreatic tissue, is one of the approaches to the ...

A Peninsular Structure Coordinates Asynchronous Differentiation with Morphogenesis to Generate Pancreatic Islets.

open access: yesCell, 2019
The pancreatic islets of Langerhans regulate glucose homeostasis. The loss of insulin-producing β cells within islets results in diabetes, and islet transplantation from cadaveric donors can cure the disease. In vitro production of whole islets, not just

Targeting pancreatic islet NLRP3 improves islet graft revascularization

open access: yesDiabetes, 2022
<p>  </p> <p>Hypoxia-induced islet cell death, caused by an insufficient revascularization of the grafts, is a major obstacle for successful pancreatic islet transplantation. Recently, it has been reported that the nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain (NOD)-like receptor protein (NLRP)3 inflammasome is expressed in pancreatic ...

Data on morphometric analysis of the pancreatic islets from C57BL/6 and BALB/c mice

open access: yesData in Brief, 2016
The endocrine portion of the pancreas, which is characterized by pancreatic islets, has been widely investigated among different species. The BALB/c and C57BL/6 mice are extensively used in experimental research, and the morphometric differences in the ...

Development of scaffold-free vascularized pancreatic beta-islets in vitro models by the anchoring of cell lines to a bioligand-functionalized gelatine substrate

open access: yesJournal of Materials Science: Materials in Medicine, 2022
Bioengineered pancreatic β-islets have been widely advocated for the research and treatment of diabetes by offering both suitable cell culture models for the study of the pathology and the testing of new drugs and a therapy in those patients no longer ...

Extracellular matrix molecules and their potential contribution to the function of transplanted pancreatic islets

open access: yesDiabetologia, 2018
Extracellular matrix (ECM) molecules are responsible for structural and biochemical support, as well as for regulation of molecular signalling and tissue repair in many organ structures, including the pancreas.

Combining Donor Characteristics with Immunohistological Data Improves the Prediction of Islet Isolation Success

open access: yesJournal of Diabetes Research, 2016
Variability of pancreatic donors may significantly impact the success of islet isolation. The aim of this study was to evaluate donor factors associated with isolation failure and to investigate whether immunohistology could contribute to organ selection.

PanCircBase: An online resource for the exploration of circular RNAs in pancreatic islets

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a novel class of covalently closed RNA molecules that recently emerged as a critical regulator of gene expression in development and diseases.
