Progenitor cells in the pancreas of humans get developmental cues from proteins in their environment.

Live-cell imaging reveals the secrets of innervation in the pancreas of zebrafish.

Species with larger pancreatic cells tend to have shorter lives, according to a study.  

Researchers used a trio of transcription factors to transform pancreatic duct cells in vivo into β-like cells that secrete insulin and improve diabetes symptoms.

Pancreatic cells engineered to produce insulin did not immediately provoke an immune response.

A small clinical trial demonstrates that peptide immunotherapy can halt the progression of early-stage type 1 diabetes.

Mouse organoids reveal that a protein active during embryonic development joins forces with gene enhancers to revert cancer cells to an earlier developmental state.

Scientists have constructed three-dimensional maps depicting the size and location of insulin-producing islet cells in the mouse pancreas.

The diabetic volunteer continued to produce insulin one year after she received a transplant of abdominal islet cells.
