    Notes: We examined early morphological changes in pancreatic endocrine cells within 12 h of intravenous streptozotocin (STZ) administration (60 mg/kg). Thirty rats were allocated either to a control group (vehicle alone) or to one of four experimental groups tested after 3, 6, 9 and 12 h. Karyopyknosis and cytoplasmic vacuoles were first observed in β-cell cytoplasm 3 h after STZ administration (STZ-3 h), and the most severe damage was found in β cells at STZ-12 h. Insulin-positive non-islet cells were observed near the intercalated duct (ICD) and/or centroacinar (CA) cells at STZ-6 h and their numbers peaked at STZ-6 h. The distribution patterns of the insulin-positive cells and those of nestin and insulin-like growth factor-1 were similar and their nuclei were positive for proliferating cell nuclear antigen. Thus, ICD cells and/or CA cells reacted immediately to transform into insulin-secreting cells to replace injured β cells (or to compensate for the lack of β cells) within 12 h of STZ administration.

    Notes: The present study examines whether centroacinar (CA) and intercalated duct (ICD) cells can serve as stem cells, after administration of the diabetogenic agent streptozotocin (STZ). Thirty rats were divided into five experimental groups: (1) control, (2) 1 day after STZ (STZ-1), (3) 3 days after STZ (STZ-3), (4) 7 days after STZ (STZ-7) and (5) 14 days after STZ (STZ-14). Many small pancreatic islets were observed in the STZ-7 group than in the other experimental groups, and many of these small islets were in close contact with ICD and CA cells. A higher number of nestin, insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and IGF-1-receptor positive ICD and CA cells were observed at STZ-3 and STZ-7 than at the others. These expression patterns coincided well with the proliferating cell nuclear antigen pattern. The results suggest that rat pancreatic endocrine cells after damage by STZ administration might be recovered from newly generated cells derived from ICD and CA cells.

    Notes: Present electron microscopical and immunocytochemistrical studies elucidated some morphological relationship between intercalated duct (ICD) and pancreatic islet cells in the chicken in streptozotocin (STZ) and/or camostat mesilate (CM) administrations. Twenty-one chickens were set into four experimental groups: (1) control group, (2) STZ administration group, (3) CM administration group, and (4) STZ + CM administration group. Cytoplasms of ICD cells stained more strongly with eosin in STZ administration group than other groups, and electron-dense materials and intercalated processes between ICD and islet cells were also increasing in time dependence in STZ administration. Number of pancreatic islet in STZ + CM co-administration was about 3.1 times larger than other groups. Many small sized cells were detected at surrounding area of ICD and they incorporated 5-bromo-2′-deoxyuridine better than other experimental groups. Present morphological data suggested that ICD cells might support some tolerances of pancreatic endocrine cells against toxic substances and also involve in regeneration of new pancreatic islet cells in STZ + CM co-administration.
