Pancreatic Acinus on Chip
Our paper developing a normal pancreatic acinus model is published in Lab on a Chip. In this paper, we reprogram pancreatic cancer cells to create cells with normal phenotypes. Engineering of a functional pancreatic acinus with reprogrammed cancer cells by induced PTF1a expression A pancreatic acinus is a functional unit of the exocrine pancreas producing digest enzymes.…
