|
|
| Researchers showed that the ARID1A mammalian SWI/SNF complex subunit was a critical regulator of β-cell regeneration. [Cell Reports] |
|
|
|
| Human islets, EndoC-βH1 and INS1 832/13 cells were transfected with scramble and EPDR1 siRNAs, or treated with human EPDR1 protein, and glucose-stimulated insulin secretion assessed by ELISA. [Molecular Metabolism] |
|
|
|
| Scientists investigated the role of thioredoxin interacting protein in acute pancreatitis when induced by high doses of arginine. [Cell Death & Disease] |
|
|
|
| Investigators used a mouse pancreatic organoid model to compare three PD-L1 blocking antibodies in the presence or absence of IFNγ using a metabolic bioanalyzer. [mAbs] |
|
|
|
| Following generation of an expression vector for the new PRSS1 variant, scientists compared its expression, secretion, and catalytic activity with already known PRSS1 risk variants in HEK 293T cells. [Pancreatology] |
| |
|
|
| Overexpression or knockdown of MACC1 in pancreatic cancer cells correspondingly promoted or inhibited pancreatic cancer cell migration and invasion in a MET proto-oncogene receptor tyrosine kinase-independent manner. [Cell Death & Disease] |
|
|
|
| Epithelium-specific ETS transcription factor 1 (ESE1) was found to exhibit dual roles in regulation of malignant properties of PDAC cells in that its overexpression promoted cell proliferation, whereas its downregulation enhanced epithelial-mesenchymal transition phenotype. [Cancer Medicine] |
|
|
|
| In PDAC cell line, SLC6A14 or SPOCK1 knockdown inhibited cells proliferation, migration, and promoted cells apoptosis. [Heliyon] |
|
|
|
|
| The authors describe the history of glucagon research from the past to the present and suggest some direction to the future of this field. [Cell Metabolism] |
|
|
|
| Investigators review the methods developed to generate pancreas organoids in vitro from embryonic, fetal and adult cells, as well as pluripotent stem cells. [Development] |
|
|
|
|
| The FDA commits to exploring alternative methods to replace laboratory animals in developing new drugs and products. [Nature News] |
