    Bioengineered Vascularized Insulin Producing Endocrine Tissues

    Islet transplantation is a promising treatment for type 1 diabetes (T1D), but limited islet engraftment hampers its success. In vivo, islets require time to remodel the hepatic parenchyma and establish their o...

    Modulation of Early Inflammatory Reactions to Promote Engraftment and Function of Transplanted Pancreatic Islets in Autoimmune Diabetes

    We acknowledge that successful long-term islet survival in the liver and immune tolerance to intrahepatic islet antigens are highly dependent upon the initial inflammatory and priming events that occur at this...
