Lucky #1 Islet • 20240811
Shortly after starting our Islet Lab end 1986, I hand-picked and photographed this special big heart-shaped isolated islet of Langerhans with Uncle Scrooge McDuck’s ‘lucky #1 dime’ in mind.
(dutch : Dagobert Duck’s geluksdubbeltje). This ‘First Islet’ poster was pinned to the wall in my study in the (small) Islet Lab ‘wing’ in the Cell Biology building of the Leiden University Hospital.
It’s an Islet of Langerhans isolated from a rat pancreas. For pilot work, the first months while developing our islet project plan, islets were isolated from rat pancreases.
I had started developing our basic lab methods… like eg. measuring the insulin secretion capacity and insulin content of isolated islets. A custom-made glass pipet was used to hand-pick and transfer the islets to little polypropyleen ‘Eppendorf’ tubes for insulin secretion tests with glucose stimulation.

Note : The Dutch dissertation system has a tradition of accompanying the generally very specialised PhD thesis with ten or more propositions (other ‘theses’), that should be ‘defensible’, and while at least some should be related to the dissertation, others generally reflect the PhD candidate’s broader interests, and the last one is often playful.

Publisher’s description
Pancreatic islet transplantation by a new method is introduced here : the isolation of islets in an organ preservation solution, the University of Wisconsin solution. A new concept allowing for the first time large-scale isolation and transplantation of consistently near 100% pure islets of Langerhans in a preclinical dog model with fasting normoglycemia up to 3 years posttransplant. Detailed metabolic studies demonstrated normal insulin levels after meals with preservation of gut hormone action stimulating insulin secretion at the mild hyperglycemia after meals. The introduction of the University of Wisconsin solution organ preservation solution for islet isolation at the start of these studies in 1989 is a new concept … and has been shown by now in 2022 , world-wide , to make the future of islet isolation and transplantation methods for insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM).
