Correction of Hyperglycemia in Diabetic Mice Transplanted with Reversibly Immortalized Pancreatic β Cells Controlled by the tet-on Regulatory System
Pancreatic β cell lines may offer an abundant source of cells for β-cell replacement in type I diabetes. Using regulatory elements of the bacterial tetracycline (tet) operon for conditional expression of SV40 T antigen oncoprotein in transgenic mouse β cells, we have shown that reversible immortaliz...
