The Novo Nordisk Foundation has awarded Karolinska Institutet up to DKK 10 million for the project.

Kan transplantation av öar till ögat stabilisera glukosnivåer hos personer med typ 1-diabetes?

Såsom har publicerats på Novo Nordisk Foundations webbplats leds en fas 1-studie av professor Per-Olof Berggren vid Karolinska Institutet i Sverige. Syftet med den kliniska studien är att undersöka om transplantation av Langerhanska cellöar till främre ögonkammaren hos personer med typ 1-diabetes kan hjälpa till att återställa insulinutsöndringen för att bibehålla glukosnivåer. Novo Nordisk Foundation har tilldelat projektet upp till 10 miljoner danska kronor.
