Abstract:Pancreatic islets primarily involved in regulating blood glucose homeostasis are the key focus of diabetes study and miRNA-mediated molecular regulation. Whole mount in situ hybridization of miRNAs and co-localization of proteins is a powerful tool for studying cell-specific expression and regulation. Although many miRNAs are potential regulators of islet function and diabetes development, most of their cell specific expression remains unknown. We developed and optimized a protocol that combines fluorescent in… Show more
