Carboxybetaine-modified succinylated chitosan-based beads encourage pancreatic β-cells (Min-6) to form islet-like spheroids under in vitro conditions.

Journal of materials science. Materials in medicine Dec 30, 2017
In vitro, pancreatic β-cells tend to reduce their ability to aggregate into islets and lose insulin-producing ability, likely due to insufficient cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions that are essential for β-cell retention, viability and functional...

Modulation of insulin aggregation by betaine and proline directly observed via real-time super-resolution microscopy.

Protein science : a publication of the Protein Society Jun 1, 2025
Protein aggregation is associated with a spectrum of neurodegenerative diseases. Although many small ligands have been found to modulate or inhibit protein aggregation, their molecular mechanisms remain unclear. One reason for this is the inherent he...
