Dr. Maki Nakayama, @Teresa_IDF1 and @DrPeterThompson provided amazing talks in the last session, Expanding roles of islet cells in type 1 diabetes, of the 2023 ISG meeting!
#islets2023
We're learning about 'Targeting the opposing roles of PGE2 receptors, EP3 and EP4, in the pathogenesis of type one diabetes' from @JulieBurkett9 (PhD candidate š in the @GannonLab )
#islets2023
Ekaterina Filatov showing us data from a collaborative project between the labs of @nictitate@BruceVerchere and @mklevings - Attracting T regs to beta SC transplants in mice!
'Yay Tregs in the graft' šŖ
#islets2023
Alexander Frueh from the @Alphacell_metab lab teaching us that glucose dependent changes in cytosolic redox potential maintain alpha cell function!
#islets2023
Interested in performing #optogenetics studies in pancreatic islets, other primary tissue, cell lines or small organisms (e.g. zebrafish or flies)?
Today I'll be presenting a poster (#54) on the modular LED shelving system I developed at #ISLETS2023@IsletsInVan2023!
Thread š
.@JelenaK86 is taking us through her recent preprint on proteomic predictors of nutrient-specific insulin secretion @IsletsInVan2023
She is also on the job market!
I'm beyond proud of @JelenaK86 for presenting her impressive insulin secretion and proteomics data (in response to different macronutrients). Note to all that gene expression data are affected by islet prep technical matters, whereas proteins aren't.
