Researchers from the University of British Columbia (UBC) have uncovered a direct connection between high insulin ...

Biopsy suggested pancreatic acinar cell cancer; serum lipase was elevated to 4 times normal. How to manage the patient?

However, research on pancreatic acini has been significantly hampered due to the difficulty of culturing normal acinar cells in vitro. In this study, an in vitro model of the normal acinus, named ...

Microscopic image of the pancreas organoid. The magenta shows the cell nuclei, and the cyan highlights the acinar cells that secrete digestive enzymes. Researchers from the Organoid group ...

Pancreatic acinar cells form a heterogeneous population of new cell types in response to injury with the potential to limit or drive disease. Acinar-derived clones labeled in red and green.

Past studies in tissue culture have suggested that one type of pancreas cell could be coaxed to transform into insulin-producing islet cells. Replacing faulty or missing cells with new insulin ...

The acinar cells released digestive enzymes and the endocrine cells produced hormones." Pancreas organoid gives new clues Using these organoids, the researchers discovered new information about ...

The scientists, including first author Emily Lo, who was co-mentored by Cahan and Feinberg, did so by sequencing the whole genome of mouse pancreatic cells transitioning between acinar and ductal ...
