Illuminating the complete ß-cell mass of the human pancreas - signifying a new view on the islets of Langerhans

2023-11-16

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Pancreatic islets of Langerhans play a pivotal role in regulating blood glucose homeostasis, but critical information regarding their mass, distribution and composition is lacking within a whole organ context. Here, a new 3D imaging pipeline was applied to generate a first complete account of the insulin-producing islets throughout the human pancreas at a microscopic resolution and within a main...
