Clinical Scorecard: Establishment of a Primary Hepatopancreatic Cell Model for Investigating Glucose Metabolism and Endocrine Regulation in Litopenaeus vannamei

At a Glance

Key Highlights

• Primary hepatopancreatic cells maintain viability and metabolic responsiveness in culture.
• Cells exhibit coordinated responses to glucose and insulin, enhancing glucose accumulation.
• Starvation conditions induce adaptive responses affecting glucose metabolism.
• Cytochemical staining allows visualization of energy storage differences.
• The model supports mechanistic investigations in crustacean endocrinology.
