Insulin Treatment of Mice Recipients Preserves β-Cell Function in Porcine Islet Transplantation

Cell Transplantation, 2002
Encapsulation of islets of Langerhans confers protection against cell-mediated immune destruction and so should allow the transplantation of islets without immunosuppression.

Alotransplante de ilhotas de Langerhans no fígado de ratos submetidos a manipulação tímica com células dendríticas Alogenic islet transplantation on the rat liver after alogenic dendritic cells injection in the thymus

Arquivos de Gastroenterologia, 2005
RACIONAL: A maior indicação do transplante de pâncreas ou de ilhotas de Langerhans é o diabetes mellitus do tipo I. O processo deve suprir as necessidades de insulina, mantendo os níveis glicêmicos dentro da normalidade.

Influence of the purification of human adult pancreatic islets on insulin secretion [PDF]

Vojnosanitetski Pregled, 2010
Background/Aim. The most effective method for human adult pancreatic islets purification is density-gradient centrifugation. The aim of this study was to analyze the effects of non-automated purification on preservation of functional capacity of human ...

A role for the extracellular calcium-sensing receptor in cell-cell communication in pancreatic islets of Langerhans [PDF]

, 2008
Background: The extracellular calcium-sensing receptor (CaR) is expressed in many tissues that are not associated with Ca2+ homeostasis, including the endocrine cells in pancreatic islets of Langerhans.

Multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells enhance insulin secretion from human islets via N-cadherin interaction and prolong function of transplanted encapsulated islets in mice

Stem Cell Research & Therapy, 2017
Background Multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) enhance viability and function of islets of Langerhans. We aimed to examine the interactions between human MSC and human islets of Langerhans that influence the function of islets.

A Stepwise Method to Derive Functional Pancreatic Islet‐like Clusters from Human Pluripotent Stem Cells

Current Protocols, Volume 6, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The most common treatment for people with people with type 1 diabetes (T1D) requires injections of exogenous insulin to regulate blood glucose homeostasis. A longer‐term therapeutic solution for T1D has emerged whereby patients may regain insulin independence through transplantation of donated human pancreatic islets, which contain insulin ...

Cyclic AMP signalling in pancreatic islets [PDF]

, 2010
Cyclic 3'5'AMP (cAMP) is an important physiological amplifier of glucose-induced insulin secretion by the pancreatic islet β-cell, where it is formed by the activity of adenylyl cyclases, which are stimulated by glucose, through elevation in ...

Encapsulation of Islets in Rough Surface, Hydroxymethylated Polysulfone Capillaries Stimulates VEGF Release and Promotes Vascularization after Transplantation

Cell Transplantation, 2005
The transplantation of encapsulated islets of Langerhans is one approach to treat type 1 diabetes without the need of lifelong immunosuppression. Capillaries have been used for macroencapsulation because they have a favorable surface-to-volume ratio and ...
