Co-transplantation of pancreatic islets and microvascular fragments effectively restores normoglycemia in diabetic mice
Abstract Insufficient revascularization of pancreatic islets is one of the major obstacles impairing the success of islet transplantation. To overcome this problem, we introduce in the present study a straightforward strategy to accelerate the engraftment of isolated islets. For this purpose, we co-...
