A proof-of-concept study demonstrates that ductal cells derived from the human pancreas can be influenced by pharmacological stimulation to regenerate beta-like cells that functionally release insulin ...

Generating functional human pancreatic acinar cells: Researchers focused on the compounds that inhibit the GSK3A/B protein and drive pancreatic progenitor cells to differentiate into pancreatic acinar ...

Researchers have developed a new organoid that mimics the human fetal pancreas, offering a clearer view of its early development. The researchers were able to recreate a complete structure that ...

Tampa General Hospital performed the world’s first in-human pancreas transplant with a new technology that preserved the organ. The October operation, led by transplant surgeon Matthew Witt, MD, ...

An organoid containing all three pancreatic cell lineages has been developed for the first time, providing a clearer picture of how the pancreas develops. Organoids can help us better understand ...

Leading investigators in diabetes, pancreas and islet biology, and computational biology have received $12.5 million in two five-year awards from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to create the ...

Pancreatic acinar organoid composed of polarized acinar cells displaying an enlarged Golgi complex (cyan) and expressing the digestive enzyme carboxypeptidase (magenta). The lumen enclosing fluid ...
