    FOLIA HISTOCHEMICA REVIEW ET CYTOBIOLOGICA Vol. 57, No. 3, 2019 pp. 101–115 Pancreatic b-cell replacement: advances in protocols used for differentiation of pancreatic progenitors to b-like cells Muhammad Waseem Ghani1, Li Ye1, Zhao Yi1, Hammad Ghani2, Muhammad Waseem Birmani1, Aamir Nawab1, Lang Guan Cun1, Liu Bin1, Xiao Mei1 1Department of Livestock Production and Management, Agricultural College, Guangdong Ocean University, Zhanjiang, Guangdong, China 2Nawaz Sharif Medical College University of Gujrat, Punjab, Pakistan Abstract Insulin-producing cells derived from in vitro differentiation of stem cells and non-stem cells by using different factors can spare the need for genetic manipulation and provide a cure for diabetes. In this context, pancreatic progenitors differentiating to b-like cells garner increasing attention as b-cell replacement source. This kind of cell therapy has the potential to cure diabetes, but is still on its way of being clinically useful. The primary restriction for in vitro production of mature and functional b-cells is developing a physiologically relevant in vitro culture system which can mimic in vivo pathways of islet development. In order to achieve this target, different approaches have been attempted for the differentiation of pancreatic stem/progenitor cells to b-like cells. Here, we will review some of the state-of-the-art protocols for the differentiation of pancreatic progenitors and differentiated pancreatic cells into b-like cells with a focus on pancreatic duct cells.

Under the auspices of the World Association of Veterinary Anatomists (W.A.V.A.), the International Committee on Veterinary Anatomical Nomenclature (I.C.V.A.N.) appointed in Giessen, 1965, a Subcommittee on Histology and Embryology which started a working relation with the Subcommittee on Histology of the former International Anatomical Nomenclature Committee. In Mexico City, 1971, this Subcommittee presented a document entitled Nomina Histologica Veterinaria: A Working Draft as a basis for the continued work of the newly-appointed Subcommittee on Histological Nomenclature. This resulted in the editing of the Nomina Histologica Veterinaria: A Working Draft II (Toulouse, 1974), followed by preparations for publication of a Nomina Histologica Veterinaria.

Received: 28 July 2010; in revised form: 2 September 2010 / Accepted: 2 September 2010 / Published: 9 September 2010 Abstract: Pancreatic cancer is characterized by its late detection, aggressive growth, intense infiltration into adjacent tissue, early metastasis, resistance to chemo- and radiotherapy and a strong ―desmoplastic reaction‖. The dense stroma surrounding carcinoma cells is composed of fibroblasts, activated stellate cells (myofibroblast-like cells), various inflammatory cells, proliferating vascular structures, collagens and fibronectin. In particular the cellular components of the stroma produce the tumor microenvironment, which plays a critical role in tumor growth, invasion, spreading, metastasis, angiogenesis, inhibition of anoikis, and chemoresistance. Fibroblasts, myofibroblasts and activated stellate cells produce the extracellular matrix components and are thought to interact actively with tumor cells, thereby promoting cancer progression. In this review, we discuss our current understanding of the role of pancreatic stellate cells (PSC) in the desmoplastic response of pancreas cancer and the effects of PSC on tumor progression, metastasis and drug resistance.

    HISTOLOGY & CELL BIOLOGY Mr. BABATUNDE, D.E DIGESTIVE GLANDS I EXTRINSIC GLANDS ❖ Of the digestive system are located outside the wall of the alimentary canal and deliver their secretion into the lumen via a system of ducts. ❖ Provide enzymes, buffers, emulsifiers, and lubricants for the digestive tract, as well as hormones, proteins, globulins, and numerous additional products for the remainder of the body. ❖ Are the salivary glands (parotid, sublingual, and submandibular), the pancreas, and the liver. MAJOR SALIVARY GLANDS Parotid Gland Classification ❖ Purely serous, compound, tubuloalveolar gland. Capsule ❖ Formed by the continuation of the superficial cervical fascia, is mostly collagenous in nature. ❖ Forms broad bands of trabeculae (septa) that subdivide the gland into lobes and lobules. Trabeculae ❖ Convey blood and lymph vessels, ducts, and nerves into the substance of the gland. ❖ Often contain fat cells in older individuals. Acini ❖ Although are said to be composed of purely serous cells, they are actually seromucous in character. ❖ Are surrounded by myoepithelial cells. ❖ Their center contains the lumen. Parotid gland : only contains serous secretory units Figure 16—2. Photomicrograph of a parotid gland. Its secretory portion consists of serous amylase—producing cells that store this enzyme in secretory granules. Intralobular (intercalated and striated) ducts are also present. Pararosaniline— toluidine blue (PT) stain. Medium magnification. Acinar Cells ❖ Pyramidal cells, whose apical aspects usually contain secretory granules. ❖ Nucleus is round and basally located. ❖ Cytoplasm contains extensive rough endoplasmic reticulum, a well-developed Golgi apparatus, and numerous mitochondria. Myoepithelial Cells ❖ Are stellate shaped. ❖ Their cytoplasm is difficult to discern with the light microscope. ❖ Electron micrographs demonstrate that they resemble smooth muscle cells and are contractile.

  • Cellular and Molecular Mechanisms of Pancreatitis in Atrophy and Regeneration
    Cellular and molecular mechanisms of pancreatitis in atrophy and regeneration Lynne Estelle Reid BSc, MSc (Qual) A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2018 Faculty of Medicine i ABSTRACT Pancreatitis is a debilitating disease with complex etiology, prognosis and pathology, limited treatment options and a burden on health resources. The main lesions of acute pancreatitis are injury to acinar cells and inflammation of the pancreas. Mild interstitial pancreatitis (or oedematous pancreatitis) is characterized by acute inflammation with oedema in the stroma and acinar tissue. Necrosis of acinar tissue, stroma or peri-pancreatic fat is absent and complete recovery, or regeneration of the gland is usual. Whilst there is universal agreement on many of the cellular changes that accompany acute pancreatitis, there is no clear distinction between the factors that determine whether regeneration can occur. The mechanism of regeneration and the cellular processes that influence regeneration form the primary basis of this study. Experimental models of pancreatitis have been produced in rats, mice, dogs, cats and swine by various methods. The time course and final tissue regeneration, if it occurs, vary considerably among different models, with many having the limitation that pancreatic injury is extended, so that degenerative processes are superimposed on regenerative activity. Three in vivo models of pancreatitis in rats were chosen for this project, to study pancreatitis and pancreatic regeneration that occurs in the recovery phase. These models evolve slowly, allowing detailed morphological study. In general, they have similar early events but vary considerably in regenerative outcome. (1) The infusion of caerulein is a well-established model for inducing experimental pancreatitis in rats and pancreatitis is followed by a great reparative capacity.

With the goal of finding therapeutic routes to treat diabetes, we aim to find molecular and cellular mechanisms involved in β-cell neogenesis and regeneration. To facilitate discovery of such mechanisms we utilize a vertebrate organism where pancreatic cells readily regenerate. The larval zebrafish pancreas contains Notch-responsive progenitors that during development give rise to adult ductal, endocrine, and centroacinar cells (CACs). Adult CACs are also Notch-responsive and are morphologically similar to their larval predecessors. To test our hypothesis that adult CACs are also progenitors we took two complementary approaches: 1) we established the transcriptome for adult CACs.
