Device design and materials optimization of conformal coating for islets of Langerhans
Alice A. Tomei,Vita Manzoli,Vita Manzoli,Christopher A. Fraker,Jaime A. Giraldo,Diana Velluto,Mejdi Najjar,Antonello Pileggi,R. Damaris Molano,Camillo Ricordi,Cherie L. Stabler,Jeffrey A. Hubbell,Jeffrey A. Hubbell +12 more
TL;DR: Both in vitro and in vivo in syngeneic murine models of islet transplantation, the function of conformally coated islets was not compromised by encapsulation and was comparable to that of unencapsulated islets.
Regeneration of pancreatic beta-cell mass for the treatment of diabetes
TL;DR: This review presents the different models of pancreatic regeneration, which encompass the replication of existing beta-cells, reversible epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition and the reactivation of resident stem cells.

TL;DR: Two methodologies are developed that will enable functional characterization of human islet preparations before transplantation and thereby provide the basis for the establishment of predictive tests for β-cell potency.
Abnormal sensitivity to glucose of human islets cultured in a high glucose medium: partial reversibility after an additional culture in a normal glucose medium.
Alberto M. Davalli,Camillo Ricordi,Carlo Socci,S. Braghi,Federico Bertuzzi,B. Fattor,Valerio Di Carlo,Antonio E. Pontiroli,Guido Pozza +8 more
TL;DR: It is indicated that short term exposure to high glucose concentrations induces a selective glucose insensitivity of human islets, which can be partially reversed by an additional culture in normal glucose medium.

Can Type 1 diabetes progression be halted? Possible role of high dose vitamin D and omega 3 fatty acids
TL;DR: The effect of administration of high dose vitamin D and Ω-3 fatty acids on T1D progression in a 8-year-old child shows a near-normal blood glucose with the administration of 1.5-2 UI of insulin once a day.
