Abstract excerpt
AIM: To investigate early insulin release (EIR) and late insulin release (LIR) upon glucose challenge as well as important insulin signaling factors in differentiated insulin-producing cells from embryonic stem cells(ESCs). METHODS: A recently published protocol was modified by increasing the concentration of Exendin-4 (from 0.1 nmol/L to 10 nmol/L) together with an additional 5-day culture in low glucose (5.5...
