| Abstract | BACKGROUND: There have been many efforts to find methods to increase insulin production by islets or modified cells. Commercially available established cell lines can be a good source of artificial islets. We manufactured sphere-shaped cell clusters composed of insulin-secreting cells from the commercially available RIN-5F cell line. METHODS: To generate artificial islets with insulin-secretion functions, we used the RIN-5F cell line. When cells cultured in RPMI-1640 medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum reached near confluency, they were trypsinized for suspension culture at high density, using a horizontal shaker. The cells were maintained for 5 days under 5% CO(2) with humidification. Next, the media from the RIN cell spheroid culture was collected over 5 consecutive days to test for insulin secretion. RESULTS: Spheroids of artificial islets exhibited an oval shape with an approximate size of 94.13 ± 20.41 µm on day 5 during the shaking culture. Abnormal outgrowth of spheroids was not observed. Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick-end labeling-positive cells were not detected among the overall spheroids, including the core position. Insulin secretion, measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, was well maintained in the culture media over 5 days after spheroid formation. CONCLUSION: This result suggested that a culture method with shaking can be applied to commercially available established cell lines to generate artificial islets, which might be used for a bioartificial pancreas. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
