A Small Molecule Swertisin from Enicostemma littorale Differentiates NIH3T3 Cells into Islet-Like Clusters and Restores Normoglycemia upon Transplantation in Diabetic Balb/c Mice

Figure 5

Schematic protocol for NIH3T3 cells normal growth and their differentiation to functional islet-like cells clusters (ILCC). The protocol involves 8-day in vitro differentiation into islet-like cell clusters that mature in vivo into functional organelle, following transplantation under the kidney capsules of BALB/c mice.
