A Fast Test to Measure Calcium Changes and Insulin Release from Tiny Spherical Cell Groups

Robben S; Davidson P; Rodrigues Ribeiro RS; Voets T

Scientists developed a new way to test diabetes medicine using special 3D cell clumps that act like real pancreas cells. These 3D clumps help scientists see how different substances affect insulin release, making research faster and cheaper. This could help find better diabetes treatments in the future.

This research looks at special T-cells in the blood that react to a type of molecule called CD1c when people have a TB infection. These T-cells become more active and help fight the infection when they recognize TB germs on CD1c molecules. Scientists found that these T-cells might help guard against TB by attacking infected cells and could be important for future studies on TB immunity.
