Fucoidan Hydrogels In article number 2011205, Tiago H. Silva, Aart A. van Apeldoorn, and co-workers explore the potential of fucoidan, a marine sulfated polysaccharide, for pancreatic islet encapsulation. has high fucose contents with sulfate groups, demonstrating potent antioxidant properties significantly alleviating oxidative stress enhancing viability function encapsulated beta cells. A fuc...
Mercury is a well-known toxic metal, which induces oxidative stress. Pancreatic beta-cells are vulnerable to oxidative stress. The pathophysiological effect of mercury on the function of pancreatic beta-cells remains unclear. The present study was designed to investigate the effects of methylmercury (MeHg)-induced oxidative stress on the cell viability and function of pancreatic beta-cells. The...
Transport of lactate across the plasma membrane of pancreatic islet beta-cells is slow, as described by Sekine et al. (J Biol Chem 269:4895-4902, 1994), which is a feature that may be important for normal nutrient-induced insulin secretion. Although eight members of the monocarboxylate transporter (MCT) family have now been identified, the expression of these isoforms within the exocrine and en...
Pancreatic beta-cell death is known to be the cause of deficient insulin production in diabetes mellitus. Oxidative stress is one of the major causes of beta-cell death. In this study, we investigated the effects of Psoralea corylifolia L. seed (PCS) extract on beta-cell death. Oral administration of PCS extract resulted in a significant improvement of hyperglycemia in streptozotocin-induced di...
The post-translational modifications of Ser and Thr residues by O-linked beta-N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc), i.e., O-GlcNAcylation, is considered a key means of regulating signaling, in a manner analogous to protein phosphorylation. Furthermore, it has been suggested that the increased flux of glucose through the hexosamine biosynthetic pathway (HBP) stimulates O-GlcNAcylation, and that this m...
Type 1 diabetes mellitus results from a cell-mediated autoimmune attack against pancreatic beta-cells. Traditional treatments involve numerous daily insulin dosages/injections and rigorous glucose control. Many efforts toward the identification of beta-cell precursors have been made not only with the aim of understanding the physiology of islet regeneration, but also as an alternative way to pr...
BACKGROUND Human embryonic stem cells (HESC) readily differentiate into an apparently haphazard array of cell types, corresponding to all three germ layers, when their culture conditions are altered, for example by growth in suspension as aggregates known as embryoid bodies (EBs). However, this diversity of differentiation means that the efficiency of producing any one particular cell type is i...
background and aims: understanding β-cell function at the molecular level will likely facilitate the development of β-cells manufacture techniques. the aim of the present study was to investigate the pancreatic and duodenal homeobox 1 (pdx-1) gene expression into dtz-stained cellular clusters originating from emberyonal carcinoma cells. methods: this implemental -fundamental study was accomplis...
OBJECTIVE Generating functional beta-cells by inducing their proliferation may provide new perspectives for cell therapy in diabetes. Transcription factor E2F1 controls G(1)- to S-phase transition during the cycling of many cell types and is required for pancreatic beta-cell growth and function. However, the consequences of overexpression of E2F1 in beta-cells are unknown. RESEARCH DESIGN AND...
OBJECTIVE Phogrin and IA-2, autoantigens in insulin-dependent diabetes, have been shown to be involved in insulin secretion in pancreatic beta-cells; however, implications at a molecular level are confusing from experiment to experiment. We analyzed biological functions of phogrin in beta-cells by an RNA interference technique. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Adenovirus-mediated expression of sho...
