Isolation of Stem Cells From Adult Human Pancreas

Case ID:

C05054

The presence of the cell surface marker CD133 or the presence of a glycosylated form of the prominin-1 gene product on adult pancreatic cells is used to identify pancreatic endocrine progenitor cells, and useful in methods of isolation and enrichment. Isolated pancreatic endocrine progenitor cells can be used for cell based therapy for insulin-dependent diabetes and pancreatectomy patients.
