The effects of islet function of addition to the culture medium of rat growth hormone was studied in 4-day cultured islets of Langerhans from normal and hypophysectomised rats. In islets from hypophysectomised rats, rates of insulin release were 34% lower than in control rat islets; rates of insulin
Studies of pancreatic development have suggested that the islet cells develop through multihormonal stages. Abundant data have confirmed that multihormonal cells are common during pancreatic development. A number of transcription factors and homeotic proteins have also been found to be important to
