Current published protocols for targeted differentiation of human stem cells toward pancreatic β-cells fail to deliver sufficiently mature cells with functional properties comparable to human islet β-cells. We aimed to assess whether Wnt-modulation could promote the final protocol stages of…

Here, Thomas was enjoying good company in Oxford at the 3rd Joint EASD Islet and Beta-Cell Workshop. He also did a good job presenting a poster on our work on alginate encapsulation. Lise Bjørkhaug Gundersen, Thomas Aga Legøy, Marie Holm…
Cell-identity switches, in which terminally differentiated cells are converted into different cell types when stressed, represent a widespread regenerative strategy in animals, yet they are poorly documented in mammals. In mice, some glucagon-producing pancreatic α-cells and somatostatin-producing δ-cells become insulin-expressing…
