When Fat Goes Astray: Your Liver and Pancreas Get Into Trouble
Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and intrapancreatic fat deposition (IPFD) are both common manifestations of ectopic fat accumulation. Although they share multiple risk factors, they also show notable differences in pathological features, standardization of diagnosis, and research maturity.

β cell replacement therapy for the cure of diabetes
Islet transplantation is an important option in the treatment of type 1 diabetes. However, a donor shortage and immunosuppressant‐related complications are the current major hurdles of islet transplantation.

Superiority of Small Islets in Human Islet Transplantation [PDF]
Many factors influence the outcome of islet transplantation. As islets in the early posttransplant setting are supplied with oxygen by diffusion only and are in a hypoxic state in the portal system, we tested whether small human islets are superior to large islets both in vitro and in vivo.

Summary While plasma‐derived proteins have emerged as potential biomarkers for prognosis after haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), there are insufficient data assessing if established proteins interleukin 1 receptor‐like 1 (IL1RL1), chemokine ligand 9 (CXCL9) and regenerating islet‐derived 3‐α (REG3α) retain their utility in the mismatched

Islet alloautotransplantation: Allogeneic pancreas transplantation followed by transplant pancreatectomy and islet transplantation [PDF]
Simultaneous pancreas-kidney (SPK) transplantation is an important treatment option for patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Due to complications, in up to 10% of patients, allograft pancreatectomy is necessary shortly after transplantation. Usually the donor pancreas is discarded. Here, we report on a novel procedure

Islet transplantation improved penile tissue fibrosis in a rat model of type 1 diabetes
Background Glycaemic control is one of the most effective strategies for the treatment of diabetes-related erectile dysfunction (DMED). Compared to conventional anti-diabetic drugs and insulin, islet transplantation is more effective in the treatment of ...

The metalloproteinase ADAM17 promotes acute lung inflammatory responses during pancreatitis
Background and Purpose Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a multifactorial upper gastrointestinal inflammatory disorder that in severe cases (~20% of all AP) is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality, the latter coincident with multiorgan dysfunction, particularly acute lung injury (ALI).

The Use of Biomaterials in Islet Transplantation [PDF]
Pancreatic islet transplantation is a therapeutic option to replace destroyed β cells in autoimmune diabetes. Islets are transplanted into the liver via the portal vein; however, inflammation, the required immunosuppression, and lack of vasculature decrease early islet viability and function.

SUITO Index for Evaluation of Efficacy of Single Donor Islet Transplantation
Evaluation of engrafted islets mass is important for clinical care of patients after islet transplantation. Recently, we developed the secretory unit of islet transplant objects (SUITO) index, which reflected engrafted islet mass.
