A major limitation of islet transplantation as a therapy for treating Type 1 Diabetes is eventual graft failure, which can be partially attributed to islet cell death. When cultured in vitro, cells in the center of large islets show increased necrosi

Multi-cellular aggregates are found in healthy and diseased tissues, and while cell–cell contact is important for regulating many cell functions, cells also interact, to varying degrees, with extra-cellular matrix (ECM) proteins. Islets of Langerha

Pancreatic islets of Langerhans regulate blood glucose homeostasis by the secretion of the hormone insulin. Like many neuroendocrine cells, the coupling between insulin-secreting β-cells in the islet is critical for the dynamics of hormone secretion
Cell-cell contact between pancreatic β-cells is important for maintaining survival and normal insulin secretion. Various techniques have been developed to promote cell-cell contact between β-cells, but a simple yet robust method that affords precis

The pancreatic islet is a multicellular organ which provides the sole source of insulin for regulating blood glucose levels. Thus, a functional understanding of the islet is of critical importance to effectively treat diabetes. Beta cells within nati
