Decreased vascular density in mouse pancreatic islets after transplantation.
An adequate revascularization is crucial for islet survival and function after transplantation. Previous studies have suggested that islet revascularization is concluded within 14 days after transplantation. We investigated if the vascular density of transplanted islets and endogenous pancreatic islets differs. Cultured islets were syngeneically transplanted into the kidney, liver, or spleen of...
متن کاملImproved Vascular Engraftment and Graft Function After Inhibition of the Angiostatic Factor Thrombospondin-1 in Mouse Pancreatic Islets
OBJECTIVE Insufficient development of a new intra-islet capillary network after transplantation may be one contributing factor to the failure of islet grafts in clinical transplantation. The present study tested the hypothesis that the angiostatic factor thrombospondin-1 (TSP-1), which is normally present in islets, restricts intra-islet vascular expansion posttransplantation. RESEARCH DESIGN...
متن کاملSkin-Limited Graft-versus-Host Disease after Pancreatic Transplantation
INTRODUCTION The phenomenon of graft-versus-host disease, a solid organ transplant recipient, is a rare development with a very poor prognosis. CASE PRESENTATION A 40-year-old woman with type 1 diabetes developed cutaneous graft-versus-host disease following second pancreas transplantation. CONCLUSION The development of a nonspecific rash in the early posttransplant period following a pancr...
