Additionally, recent reviews have explored the metabolic processes involved in insulin secretion, challenging traditional models of how insulin is released from pancreatic beta cells. New insights ...

Pancreatic beta cells within the islets of Langerhans are essential regulators of body glucose ... Our group combines gene editing, cutting-edge molecular and cellular biology techniques and mouse ...

The Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology is comprised of scientists with expertise in many biomedical areas including aging, cancer biology and metastasis, cell biology, cardiovascular and ...

Beta cells are cells that make insulin, a hormone that controls the level of glucose (a type of sugar) in the blood. Beta cells are found in the pancreas within clusters of cells known as islets. In ...

You will be redirected to our submission process. Cells don't live in isolation. Communication among multiple cells types within the same tissue and between cells located in different organs regulates ...

Background Type 2 diabetes (T2D) cause the dysfunction of insulin produced in the pancreas by beta cell, which leads to the non-correct response in fat, liver, and muscle cells. However, we are still ...

Research introduces new DNA methylation-based method for accurately assessing cell composition in the human pancreas ... for ...

In this study, we investigated the role of myofibroblasts, particularly stellate cells, in the growth and regeneration of pancreatic beta cells. METHODS: We used both in vitro and in vivo approaches ...

This is a useful study that seeks to address the role of the TET family of DNA demethylation enzymes in pancreatic beta cell senescence in the context of type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Although the concepts ...
