In the literature, neuropeptide Y (NPY) has been described in the brain and peripheral nerves. More recently, it has also been detected in endocrine cells of hamster, embryonic mouse, and rat pancreas. However, the presence of NPY in avian embryos and the possible colocalization of this peptide with

Sections of pancreas from human fetuses, 6-20 weeks gestation, were stained with immunoperoxidase for insulin (B cells), glucagon (A cells), pancreatic polypeptide or somatostatin (D cells). Morphometric analyses were performed on sections from head and tail regions of each fetus. No stained cells w
Bouin-fixed tissues from non-diabetic adult human pancreata display an argyrophil reaction mainly in the periphery of the islets with the silver technique of Sevier-Munger. The nature of these argyrophil cells was examined after restaining by an indirect immunocytochemical method using antibodies ag
## Abstract Human isletβderived precursor cells (hIPCs) and human pancreatic ductal carcinoma (PANCβ1) cells can be induced to form aggregates that subsequently differentiate into hormoneβexpressing isletβlike cell aggregates (ICAs). We show that challenge of hIPCs or PANCβ1 cells with thrombin or
