In Vitro Pancreas Organogenesis from Dispersed Mouse Embryonic Progenitors

Filippo De Franceschi, Anne Grapin-Botton, Chiara Greggio

The pancreas is an essential organ that regulates glucose homeostasis and secretes digestive enzymes. Research on pancreas embryogenesis has led to the development of protocols to produce pancreatic cells from stem cells. The whole embryonic organ can be c ...

Impact of hepatic lipid accumulation and composition on glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity: a longitudinal study in male and female mice

Rolf Gruetter, Hongxia Lei, Ana Francisca Leal Silva Soares

Background and aims: Metabolic disruptions characterized by high hepatic lipid content (HLC) are associated with impairments in whole body glucose homeostasis. To gain insight on the role of hepatic lipids in the metabolic performance in the absence artifi ...

Artificial three-dimensional niches deconstruct pancreas development in vitro

Matthias Lütolf, Filippo De Franceschi, Anne Grapin-Botton, Adrian Ranga, Samy Gobaa, Chiara Greggio

In the context of a cellular therapy for diabetes, methods for pancreatic progenitor expansion and subsequent differentiation into insulin-producing beta cells would be extremely valuable. Here we establish three-dimensional culture conditions in Matrigel ...

Comparative Performance of Different Nanostructured Electrochemical Sensors on Insulin Detection

Giovanni De Micheli, Sandro Carrara, Lucia Grassi

New advancements in the management of type I diabetic patients (T1DM) call for a new generation of monitoring systems based upon an array of metabolic biosensors including sensors for insulin detection. Blood insulin values are always less than 270 pM; the ...

Planar Cell Polarity Controls Pancreatic Beta Cell Differentiation and Glucose Homeostasis

Anne Grapin-Botton, Mathieu Gouzi, Cédric Cortijo

Planar cell polarity (PCP) refers to the collective orientation of cells within the epithelial plane. We show that progenitor cells forming the ducts of the embryonic pancreas express PCP proteins and exhibit an active PCP pathway. Planar polarity proteins ...

Engineered insulin-like growth factor-1 for improved smooth muscle regeneration

Peter Frey, Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Kristen Lorentz, Lirong Yang

Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) has been shown to induce potent mitogenic responses in various cell types, yet its sustained local delivery is still an underdeveloped domain in the clinic. We report here an engineered IGF-1 that facilitates extended l ...

Restoration of direct pathway glycogen synthesis flux in the STZ-diabetes rat model by insulin administration

Ana Francisca Leal Silva Soares

Type 1 diabetes subjects are characterized by impaired direct pathway synthesis of hepatic glycogen that is unresponsive to insulin therapy. Since it is not known whether this is an irreversible defect of insulin-dependent diabetes, direct and indirect pat ...

JewelPUMP (TM) by Debiotech S.A.: Insulin Temperature Measurement Study

Adrien De Muralt

For type 1 Diabetes, insulin injection therapy is the most used treatment today, and insulin pumps are surely the most accurate therapeutic strategy. The insulin use temperature has to not exceed 37°C to prevent unwanted degradation and loss of function. T ...

Definition of in Vitro Microenvironments to Characterize and Control Pancreatic Progenitor Expansion and Differentiation

Chiara Greggio

The pancreas plays a central role in metabolism. The exocrine pancreas, composed of ductal and acinar cells, secretes and delivers digestive enzymes into the duodenum where they contribute to food digestion. The endocrine pancreas, constituted by the islet ...

Two mutations in human BICC1 resulting in Wnt pathway hyperactivity associated with cystic renal dysplasia

Daniel Constam, Marine Marie Kraus, Anne Grapin-Botton

Bicaudal C homologue 1 (Bicc1) knockout in mice causes polycystic kidney disease and pancreas development defects, including a reduction in insulin-producing β-cells and ensuing diabetes. We therefore screened 137 patients with renal abnormalities or assoc ...
