Dysfunctions of the tiny cell processes (primary cilia) of the pancreatic beta cells could be a cause of type 2 diabetes. Little is known about the structure and function of these cilia.
The main function of a beta cell is to produce and secrete insulin – the hormone responsible for regulating levels of glucose in the blood. When blood glucose levels start to rise (e.g. during ...
Beta cells are cells in the pancreas. They are found in groups called islets. Beta cells create insulin, a hormone that regulates your blood glucose levels. When your blood glucose levels increase ...
Structure of lignocellulose. The main component of lignocellulose is cellulose, a beta(1–4)-linked chain of glucose molecules.
In a clinical trial led by University of Toronto researchers, an allogeneic stem cell–derived islet therapy (zimislecel) ...
Loss of beta cell function serves as the basis for progression from normal glucose tolerance to impaired glucose tolerance, but insulin clearance may not be a major factor in the development of ...
Researchers produce fully functional pancreatic beta cells from stem cells Date: March 3, 2022 Source: University of Helsinki Summary: Researchers have carried out pioneering efforts to optimize ...
The beta cells of the pancreas are responsible for releasing the hormone insulin, which is vital for the absorption of glucose from the bloodstream. Various factors can impair the ability of these ...
