Organoids—tiny, lab-grown 3D clusters of cells—are a useful tool for studying organ development, disease, and drug responses. These miniature organs-in-a-dish are powerful, but they’re not perfect: ...

Researchers at Umeå University have conducted a unique three-dimensional mapping of an entire human pancreas. The study shows ...

Our glycaemic balance is based on the ability of the pancreatic beta cells to detect glucose and secrete insulin to maintain our blood sugar levels. If these cells malfunction, the balance is broken, ...

Immunofluorescence image of the pancreatic islets of a 50-year-old-female without diabetes. This individual had 54% beta cells (GREEN), 9% delta cells (WHITE) and 37% alpha cells (RED). Diabetes is ...

Professor Deng Hongkui's team from the Peking University School of Life Sciences has made the first successful differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells into fully endocrine-subtype-complete ...

Our glycemic balance is based on the ability of the pancreatic beta cells to detect glucose and secrete insulin to maintain our blood sugar levels. If these cells malfunction, the balance is broken, ...

Researchers at Karolinska Institutet and KTH Royal Institute of Technology have developed an improved method for creating insulin-producing cells from human stem cells. In a newly published study, the ...

When a mouthful of water goes down the “wrong pipe”—heading toward the lungs instead of the gut—it triggers uncontrollable coughing. That’s because the upper airway senses the water and quickly ...

KIT ATP-Binding Pocket/Activation Loop Mutations in GI Stromal Tumor: Emerging Mechanisms of Kinase Inhibitor Escape To our knowledge, to date, no survival benefit has been demonstrated. Appraisal of ...
