pancreatic cells

[Cell Stem Cell] The authors reported an analysis on one year of data from the first cohort of 15 patients from a single trial site that received subcutaneous implantation of cell products combined with an immunosuppressive regimen.

[Clinical and Translational Oncology] Researchers investigated the effects of exosomes extracted from human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells carrying hsa-miRNA-128-3p on pancreatic cancer cells.

[ACS Nano] Investigators described a strategy that utilizes pretargeting and glycochemistry to bioengineer β cells in situ to induce β-cell-specific tolerance.

[FEBS Journal] Investigators found that the RIIB subunit of protein kinase A is expressed specifically by β cells of mouse and human islets.

[Cell Reports] Pharmacologic inhibition of CHK1 alone caused apoptotic growth suppression of both PDAC cell lines and organoids, which correlated with loss of MYC expression.

[PLoS One] Investigators showed that Akr1c19 expression was dramatically decreased in db/db islets.
