Imaging mechanisms of therapeutic ultrasound in human islets
Abstract
We have previously shown that therapeutic ultrasound (TUS) has a wide range of effects on rat pancreas cells. We aim to explore additional possible mechanisms of TUS on the pancreas in a more physiologically relevant human islet model with the goal of potential therapies for type-2 diabetes. Fluorescence microscopy was performed on live human islets with dyes that can label for intracellular calcium, sodium, and reactive oxygen species (ROS). …
