Absence of CSF-1-Dependent Macrophages Does Not Improve Function of Transplanted Islets of Langerhans
A role of macrophage-mediated inflammatory events in early islet graft loss is increasingly acknowledged. Osteopetrotic mice (op/op) have a complete absence of CSF-1, and thus of most tissue macrophages. We have investigated whether the absence of CSF-1-dependent macrophages in the graft itself or a...
