Significant expansion of the donor pool achieved by utilizing islets of variable quality in the production of allogeneic "Neo-Islets", 3-D organoids of Mesenchymal Stromal and islet cells, a novel immune-isolating biotherapy for Type I Diabetes.
Novel biotherapies for Type 1 Diabetes that provide a significantly expanded donor pool and that deliver all islet hormones without requiring anti-rejection drugs are urgently needed. Scoring systems have improved islet allotransplantation outcomes, but their use may potentially result in the waste...
