Abstract excerpt
The development of in vitro models able to support the long-term viability and function of acinar cells is critical for exploring pancreatic pathophysiology. Despite considerable efforts, no long-term culture models for non-transformed pancreatic acini exist. Our aim was to develop and validate culture conditions for this purpose. An explant outgrowth culture design was established in which mouse pancreatic...
