Organoids are three-dimensional miniature models of organs, grown in a dish. They have become a valuable tool for studying ...

Generating functional human pancreatic acinar cells: Researchers focused on the compounds that inhibit the GSK3A/B protein and drive pancreatic progenitor cells to differentiate into pancreatic acinar ...

Hans Clevers, PhD, has been working on organoids from the beginning. He was group leader for twenty years at the Hubrecht Institute and has been head of pharma research and early development (pRED) of ...

Researchers have developed a new organoid that mimics the human fetal pancreas, offering a clearer view of its early development. The researchers were able to recreate a complete structure that ...

Researchers from the Organoid group (previously Clevers group) at the Hubrecht Institute have developed a new organoid that mimics the human fetal pancreas, offering a clearer view of its early ...

Pancreas development in pigs resembles humans much more closely than does the established mouse model. An international team headed by Helmholtz Munich and the German Center for Diabetes Research (DZD ...

Tampa General Hospital performed the world’s first in-human pancreas transplant with a new technology that preserved the organ. The October operation, led by transplant surgeon Matthew Witt, MD, ...

Hello Health Rounds Readers! A new study suggests it might be possible to keep some pancreas cells working longer in children with type 1 diabetes, potentially delaying complications of the disease.

Severe chronic pancreatitis is treated by removing the pancreas. Without a pancreas, patients also lose insulin-producing cells called islets. To preserve insulin responses, surgeons transplant islets ...

Dresden researchers develop novel methods to create acinar cells, which are involved in the formation of pancreatic cancer.
