Monoclonal antibodies 4F2 and LC7-2 react with a cell surface differentiation antigen expressed by the endocrine cells of the human pancreatic islet, but not by the acinar pancreatic, ductular, vascular, or stromal connective tissue cells. Western immunoblotting procedures demonstrate the reactivity of the monoclonal antibody 4F2 with a 120 kilodalton islet cell protein in detergent-solubilized cell extracts. These two monoclonal antibodies have potential for application in many aspects of islet cell research and diabetes in general.

D007515 Islets of Langerhans Irregular microscopic structures consisting of cords of endocrine cells that are scattered throughout the PANCREAS among the exocrine acini. Each islet is surrounded by connective tissue fibers and penetrated by a network of capillaries. There are four major cell types. The most abundant beta cells (50-80%) secrete INSULIN. Alpha cells (5-20%) secrete GLUCAGON. PP cells (10-35%) secrete PANCREATIC POLYPEPTIDE. Delta cells (~5%) secrete SOMATOSTATIN.
