Ewing sarcomas are rare tumors arising mainly in the bones and the surrounding soft tissues. Primary extraosseous Ewing sarcomas have also been described in several other organs and locations other than bones, including the pancreas. These tumors have well-defined histological, immunohistochemical, and molecular characteristics.

Epithelial progenitor cells of the primitive pancreatic ducts differentiate in 3 directions, which is accompanied by changes in cell phenotype. We analyze the distribution of the pancreatic and duodenal homeobox 1 (PDX1) in the epithelial cells of pancreatic ducts during the prenatal development in order to determine the potential use of this marker as an indicator of pancreatic cell maturation. Pancreatic autopsies from human fetuses (gestation weeks 17-23) were examined by immunohistochemical methods.

Although the metabolism of yolk lipids such as docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is pivotal for embryonic development, the underlying mechanism remains elusive. Here we find that the zebrafish hydroxysteroid (17-β) dehydrogenase 12a (hsd17b12a), which encodes an intestinal epithelial-specific enzyme, is essential for the biosynthesis of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids in primitive intestine of larval fish. The deficiency of hsd17b12a leads to severe developmental defects in the primitive intestine and exocrine pancreas.

In this protocol, we detail a seven-stage differentiation methodology for generating pancreatic delta cells (SC-delta cells) from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs). In the first step, definitive endoderm is generated by activin A and CHIR99021, followed by induction of primitive gut tube and posterior foregut by treatment with FGF7, SANT1, LDN193189, PdBU, and retinoic acid (RA). The subsequent endocrine generation and directed SC-delta cell induction is achieved by a combined treatment of the FGF7 with FGF2 during stage 4 and 5, together with RA, XXI, ALK5 inhibitor II, SANT1, Betacellulin and LDN193189.
