Characterization of Human Pancreatic Beta-cell Progenitors as a Means to Alleviate the Shortage of Donor Tissue for Islet Transplantation
DownloadFall 2012
The current shortage of islet tissue from cadaveric human donors is not sustainable and will preclude islet transplantation from becoming a widespread therapeutic treatment for those with type 1 diabetes. A potential alternative source of tissue may be through isolating, expanding, and...

Clinical and Translational Studies Advancing Clinical Implementation of Stem Cell-Derived Islet Transplantation
DownloadSpring 2024
Twenty-years ago Shapiro et al. revolutionized islet transplantation (ITx), realizing the potential for a cell-based diabetes treatment. Despite improvements, ITx remains restricted by organ donor limitations and immunosuppression. Stem cell (SC)-derived ITx (SC Tx) could eliminate these...

Contributions of Bim and Nur77 to multiple mechanisms of T cell tolerance following high affinity antigen encounter
DownloadSpring 2015
Prevention of autoimmune disease requires the elimination or inactivation of T cells that are highly reactive to self-peptides. During T cell development in the thymus, self-reactive thymocytes undergo negative selection upon receiving a high affinity T cell receptor (TCR) signal following...
