Generation of insulin‐secreting cells from human embryonic stem cells
1 Jun 2006
Abstract excerpt
A growth factor-mediated selection method was used to obtained insulin-secreting cells from human embryonic stem cells (hESC; Royan H1). Our resultant cells were positive for dithizone, a zinc-chelating agent known to selectively stain pancreatic beta cells and immunoreactive for antibodies against insulin, glucagon, and C-peptide. Semi-quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction detected...
