  • Differentiating functional human islet-like aggregates from pluripotent stem cells
    Barsby, Tom; Ibrahim, Hazem; Lithovius, Väinö; Montaser, Hossam; Balboa, Diego; Vähäkangas, Eliisa; Chandra, Vikash; Saarimäki-Vire, Jonna; Otonkoski, Timo (Elsevier, 2022)
    We present here a robust and reliable protocol by which to differentiate pancreatic islet-like aggregates (SC-islets) from human pluripotent stem cells. The 7-stage protocol mimics developmental patterning factors that ...
  • Loss of MANF causes childhood-onset syndromic diabetes due to increased endoplasmic reticulum stress
    Montaser, Hossam; Patel, Kashyap A.; Balboa, Diego; Ibrahim, Hazem; Lithovius, Väinö; Näätänen, Anna; Chandra, Vikash; Demir, Korcan; Acar, Sezer; Ben-Omran, Tawfeg; Colclough, Kevin; Locke, Jonathan M; Wakeling, Matthew; Lindahl, Maria; Hattersley, Andrew T.; Saarimäki-Vire, Jonna; Otonkoski, Timo (American Diabetes Association, 2021)
    Mesencephalic astrocyte-derived neurotrophic factor (MANF) is an endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-resident protein that plays a crucial role in attenuating ER stress responses. Although MANF is indispensable for the survival and ...
  • The type 1 diabetes gene TYK2 regulates β-cell development and its responses to interferon-α
    Chandra, Vikash; Ibrahim, Hazem; Halliez, Clémentine; Prasad, Rashmi B.; Vecchio, Federica; Dwivedi, Om Prakash; Kvist, Jouni; Balboa, Diego; Saarimäki-Vire, Jonna; Montaser, Hossam; Barsby, Tom; Lithovius, Väinö; Artner, Isabella; Gopalakrishnan, Swetha; Groop, Leif; Mallone, Roberto; Eizirik, Décio L.; Otonkoski, Timo (Nature Research, 2022)
    Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease that results in the destruction of insulin producing pancreatic β-cells. One of the genes associated with T1D is TYK2, which encodes a Janus kinase with critical roles in ...
