Metallothionein overexpression prolongs grafts survival in the early phase of pancreatic islet transplantation Xiaoyan Li
Background In patients with unstable type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D), allogeneic pancreatic islet transplantation is a therapeutic option to restore insulin secretion and improve metabolic control. However, the success of islet transplantation is dependent on the number and quality of isolated islets. It is known that the inflammatory environment related to the donor’s brain-death (BD) and the s...
Pancreatic islets are highly vascularized and arranged so that regions containing beta-cells are distinct from those containing other cell types. Although islet blood flow has been studied extensively, little is known about the dynamics of islet blood flow during hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia. To investigate changes in islet blood flow as a function of blood glucose level, we clamped blood gluc...
To investigate molecular mechanisms controlling islet vascularization and revascularization after transplantation, we examined pancreatic expression of three families of angiogenic factors and their receptors in differentiating endocrine cells and adult islets. Using intravital lectin labeling, we demonstrated that development of islet microvasculature and establishment of islet blood flow occu...
We previously reported a small-scale study on the efficacy of histidine-tryptophan-ketoglutarate (HTK) solution versus University of Wisconsin (UW) solution on pancreas preservation for islet isolation. In this large-scale, retrospective analysis (n = 252), we extend our initial description of the impact of HTK on islet isolation outcomes and include pancreatic digestion efficacy, purification ...
OBJECTIVE Various immunological strategies for tolerance induction against allogeneic tissue grafts (allografts) have been tested in islet transplant recipients; for example, T cell activating co-stimulatory pathway blockade has been shown to prolong islet allograft survival. However, little is known about whether infiltrating inflammatory cells (e.g., basophils) affect islet allograft fates be...
The process of human islet isolation triggers a cascade of stressful events in the islets of Langerhans involving activation of apoptosis and necrosis and the production of proinflammatory molecules that negatively influence islet yield and function and may produce detrimental effects after islet transplantation. In this study, we showed that activation of nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) and ...
INTRODUCTION For patients with chronic pancreatitis presenting with medically intractable abdominal pain, surgical intervention may be the only treatment option. However, extensive pancreatic resections are typically performed open and are associated with a substantial amount of postoperative pain, wound complications and long recovery time. Minimally invasive surgery offers an avenue to improv...
Pancreatic islet transplantation as a potential cure for type 1 diabetes (T1D) cannot be scaled up due to a scarcity of human pancreas donors. In vitro expansion of beta-cells from mature human pancreatic islets provides an alternative source of insulin-producing cells. The exact nature of the expanded cells produced by diverse expansion protocols and their potential for differentiation into fu...
