Immortalized Human Pancreatic Microvascular Endothelial Cells

Description

The pancreas is an endocrine gland and digestive organ which secretes hormones and produces pancreatic juice to aid in digestion. Pancreatic endocrine cells, aka pancreatic islets, produce vital hormones such as glucagon, insulin, amylin, and somatostatin. In order to support the islets, the pancreas is a highly vascularized organ where endothelial cells play a critical role.
