Mouse Pancreas Development

Remodeling of the pancreatic epithelial cell mass into polarized monolayers.

  • Pancreatic sections from e10.5 to e15.5 embryos were examined by immunofluorescence using antibodies directed against E-cadherin, mucin-1 and laminin.
  • Pancreatic development starts by the formation of a mass of non-polarized epithelial cells (e10.5-e11.5).
  • This mass is then remodeled (e12.5-e13.5) and finally every epithelial cell become polarized, with its basal pole contacting laminin and its apical pole facing a lumen (e14.5-e15.5).
* indicates the central duct, in connection with the duodenum.

Scale bar, 100 μm.
