Development of the endocrine pancreas.
This short review presents the recent breakthroughts in our understanding of the important steps controlling pancreas morphogenesis and differentiation, and on the transcription factors regulating pancreas organogenesis and islet cell differentiation and involved in the specification of the beta and alpha cell lineages. All these studies should permit a comprehensive view of the full genetic pr...
متن کاملDevelopment and Regeneration in the Endocrine Pancreas
The pancreas is composed of two compartments that deliver digestive enzymes and endocrine hormones to control the blood sugar level. The endocrine pancreas consists of functional units organized into cell clusters called islets of Langerhans where insulin-producing cells are found in the core and surrounded by glucagon-, somatostatin-, pancreatic polypeptide-, and ghrelin-producing cells. Diabe...
متن کاملInteraction between the Exocrine and Endocrine Pancreas
Pancreatic duct cells express Na-dependent glucose transporter, SGLT1 and Na-independent glucose transporters, GLUT1, GLUT2, and GLUT8. We examined transepithelial glucose transport by pancreatic duct. Interlobular ducts were isolated from rat pancreas. During overnight culture both ends of the duct segments sealed spontaneously. The lumen of the sealed duct was micropunctured and the luminal f...
متن کاملPancreas-enriched miRNA refines endocrine cell differentiation.
Genome-encoded microRNAs (miRNAs) provide a post-transcriptional regulatory layer that is important for pancreas development. However, how specific miRNAs are intertwined into the transcriptional network, which controls endocrine differentiation, is not well understood. Here, we show that microRNA-7 (miR-7) is specifically expressed in endocrine precursors and in mature endocrine cells. We furt...
متن کاملhistological and histomorphometrical study of endocrine pancreas in maquee sheep
this study was conducted to determine the properties of islets of langerhans in pancreas of adult and immature, male and female maquee sheep. for this purpose, 20 samples of pancreas were used equally for each male and female, immature and adult animals. paraffin sections that they were stained by h&e; method were used for mean distribution and dimension of langerhans islets, and maldonado stai...
