Lower levels of apolipoprotein CIII reduce risk of getting type 1 diabetes

Lower levels of apolipoprotein CIII reduce risk of getting type 1 diabetes

Posted in: Publication|February 21, 2012

        A promising way to delay onset of type 1 diabetes is to reduce the concentration of apolipoprotein CIII (apoCIII) in blood. This discovery is presented in a newly published article in PNAS from June 2011. It took twice as long for the rats that have undergone therapy reducing apoCIII to develop …

InSight for observing how immune system reacts to the islets of Langerhans

InSight for observing how immune system reacts to the islets of Langerhans

Posted in: Publication|February 21, 2012

        New success of the InSight* technology is now presented in an article in PNAS from July 18th, 2011. Using this unique technology in a mouse model, reactions of the immune system to implanted islets of Langerhans were for the first time observed in a living organism. Following an allogeneic transplantation of beta …

Donor Islet Endothelial Cells

Donor Islet Endothelial Cells

Posted in: Publication|February 21, 2012

Endothelial cells lining surfaces of donor islets promote a faster initial blood vessel formation after transplantation. The results are published in Diabetes in October 2011. Patients with type 1 diabetes lack insulin, as the majority of the pancreatic beta cells producing this vital hormone have been destroyed. Transplanting donor islets of Langerhans, built up primarily …

Transplantation into the eye can cure diabetes

Transplantation into the eye can cure diabetes

Posted in: Publication|February 21, 2012

        Insulin shots for patients with type 1 diabetes can become history. A novel site to transplant donor islet of Langerhans may give a chance to cure patients’ own failing insulin production. When transplanted into the anterior chamber of the eye of a diabetic monkey, pancreatic islets survive and produce insulin, reducing …

DiabetesMines reports on InSight Technology

Posted in: Research group news, Society|July 5, 2011

DiabetesMines reports on InSight Technology on the 5th of July, 2011 The website DiabetesMines reports on the transplantation of pancreatic islet cells into the anterior chamber of the eye, being performed at the Diabetes Research Institute (DRI) in Florida. Using the eye as a local transplantation site reduces the amount of insulin needed in diabetic …
