Method developed that gives researchers better conditions for studying insulin-producing cells

Method developed that gives researchers better conditions for studying insulin-producing cells

Posted in: Publication, Research group news|September 3, 2017

Pancreatic islet blood flow dynamics in primates On the web-site of Karolinska Institutet, there is  recent post regarding a new publication in  the scientific journal Cell Reports. “Researchers have established a unique method enabling them to study the function of insulin-producing cells under conditions that are similar to those in humans. This can pave the way …

Spatial and temporal coordination of insulin granule exocytosis

Spatial and temporal coordination of insulin granule exocytosis

Posted in: Publication, Research group news|December 30, 2015

Spatial and temporal coordination of insulin granule exocytosis in intact human pancreatic islets. Insulin secretion plays a central role in glucose homeostasis and diabetes. However, all aspects of the macroscopic secretory pattern at the cellular level are not totally clear. The results from a study presented in the December 2015 issue of Diabetologia, reveal how …

New insights into the architecture of the islet of Langerhans

New insights into the architecture of the islet of Langerhans

Posted in: Publication, Research group news|October 31, 2015

New insights into the architecture of the islet of Langerhans: a focused cross-species assessment. Many studies on human islet cells rely on the legacy of rodent-based investigations. Since islet physiology and pathology may differ between rodents and humans, the current knowledge of interspecies islet cell cytoarchitecture and its potential impact on islet function is reviewed …

PI3K-C2α Knockdown Results in Rerouting of Insulin Signaling and Pancreatic Beta Cell Proliferation

PI3K-C2α Knockdown Results in Rerouting of Insulin Signaling and Pancreatic Beta Cell Proliferation

Posted in: Publication, Research group news|October 6, 2015

PI3K-C2α Knockdown Results in Rerouting of Insulin Signaling and Pancreatic Beta Cell Proliferation. Insulin resistance is a syndrome that affects multiple insulin target tissues, each having different biological functions regulated by insulin. A remaining question is how an insulin target cell/tissue can be insulin resistant in one biological function and insulin sensitive in another at …

Apolipoprotein a1 increases mitochondrial biogenesis

Apolipoprotein a1 increases mitochondrial biogenesis

Posted in: Publication, Research group news|September 30, 2015

Apolipoprotein a1 increases mitochondrial biogenesis through AMP-activated protein kinase. A study presented in the September issue of Cellular Signalling, suggests that apolipoprotein a1 can alleviate obesity related metabolic disease by inducing AMPK dependent mitochondrial biogenesis.

Agonistic aptamer to the insulin receptor leads to biased signaling and functional selectivity

Agonistic aptamer to the insulin receptor leads to biased signaling and functional selectivity

Posted in: Publication, Research group news|September 18, 2015

Agonistic aptamer to the insulin receptor leads to biased signaling and functional selectivity through allosteric modulation. In this study IR-A48 is presented as a biased agonist able to selectively induce the metabolic activity of insulin receptors through allosteric binding. This is the first study to show that aptamer–protein interactions can not only differentially modulate receptor …

The pancreatic beta-cell in deadly encounter with apolipoprotein CIII

The pancreatic beta-cell in deadly encounter with apolipoprotein CIII

Posted in: Publication, Research group news|September 1, 2015

The pancreatic beta-cell in deadly encounter with apolipoprotein CIII A publication in Cell Cycle describes studies which demonstrate that preventing insulin resistance at the islet level is crucial to maintain beta-cell function and survival in diabetes. Tests in a T2DM mouse model were performed using the Biocrine InSight in vivo technology. Targeting the local islet …
