Comparative analysis of reconstructed architectures from mice and human islets

Abstract: Intra-islet communication via electrical, paracrine and autocrine signals, is highly dependent on the organization of cells within the islets and is key for an adequate response to changes in blood glucose and other stimuli. In spite of the fact that relevant structural differences between mouse and human islet architectures have been described, the functional implications of these differences remain only partially understood. In this work, aiming to contribute to a better understanding of the relationship bet… Show more

“…cell-to-cell contacts) is obtained. In a related article, 2 we used the properties obtained from the islet reconstruction process to quantitatively characterize the connectivity network formed in normal and perturbed islets. On the other hand, Hoang et al 3 proposed a computational approach to evaluate the functional implications of the islet composition, organization and connectivity, using the Kuramoto model of coupled oscillators to simulate the pulsatile nature of hormone secretion.…”

“…Félix-Martínez y colaboradores empleando el algoritmo brevemente descrito [48] han reconstruido islotes de humanos y de ratón [51]. Como muestra de los resultados obtenidos de la implementación del algoritmo, en la Figura 9 se muestran 4 islotes pancreáticos reportados [51], constituidos únicamente de células α y β. Estos resultados demuestran que el algoritmo es capaz de reconstruir islotes pancreáticos tomando en cuenta el tamaño celular, la composición, distribución y localización de las células [51]. En este trabajo se reconstruyeron 28 islotes de humanos (ver sección 4.1).…”

“…Partiendo de las arquitecturas de los islotes humanos reconstruidos computacionalmente se identificaron y cuantificaron los contactos entre células α (N αα ), células α y β (N αβ ), células α y δ (N αδ ), células β (N ββ ). Para esto se utilizó el algoritmo implementado en IsletLab [63], descrito a detalle en [51] (un esquema general del algoritmo se puede observar en la Figura 15).…”
