Innate and adaptive immunity to human beta cell lines: implications for beta cell therapy
2016
Aims/hypothesis
Genetically engineered human beta cell lines provide a novel source of human beta cells to study metabolism, pharmacology and beta cell replacement therapy. Since the immune system is essentially involved in beta cell destruction in type 1 diabetes and after beta cell transplantation, we investigated the interaction of human beta cell lines with the immune system to resolve their potential for immune intervention protocol studies.
