Abstract
Intraportal (IP) islet cell transplants can restore metabolic control in type 1 diabetes patients, but limitations raise the need for establishing a functional beta cell mass (FBM) in a confined extrahepatic site. This study reports on function and composition of omental (OM) implants after placement of islet cell grafts with similar beta cell mass as in our IP-protocol (2–5.106 beta cells/kg body weight) on a scaffold. Four of seven...
