| Research Abstract |
Pancreatic stem cells were identified as the size restricted cells that were harbored in spleen. In addition, the size restricted small cells retained a homology between pancreas and spleen. Furthermore, the cells that were candidate for pancreatic stem cells were up-regulated the expression of critical genes, including Oct3/4, Sox2, c-Myc, Klf4 and Nanog, which were well-known genes as reprogramming for iPS cells.
