Conceptual diagram summarizing the central experiment comparing cell death in amyloid-β treated neuronal cells with and without pancreatic β cell culture supernatant. Pancreas cells may produce a ...

Pancreatitis refers to inflammation of the pancreas, an organ located in the back of the upper abdomen, behind the stomach, that secretes hormones and digestive juices. The condition can occur as a ...

In a new study published in Journal of Extracellular Vesicles, Chen-Yu Zhang's group and Antonio Vidal-Puig's group at University of Cambridge report that pancreatic β cells secrete miR-29 family ...

Two new studies show that the Covid-19 coronavirus may infect the β-cells in your pancreas and affect their ability to secrete insulin. (Photo by FRANCK FIFE/AFP via Getty Images) Add this to the ...

The islets of Langerhans are the regions of the pancreas that contain cells that produce hormones. There are five types of cells in the islets of Langerhans: beta cells secrete insulin; alpha cells ...

The pancreas is a large gland located behind the stomach. It secretes insulin, necessary for blood sugar control, directly into the blood stream. It also secretes digestive juices necessary for ...

For example, in the pancreas, you can find these cells in pancreatic islets, which secrete hormones like insulin that regulate our blood sugar. Although pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors develop from ...
