Characteristics of the early immune response following transplantation of mouse ES cell derived insulin-producing cell clusters.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND: The fully differentiated progeny of ES cells (ESC) may eventually be used for cell replacement therapy (CRT). However, elements of the innate immune system may contribute to damage or destruction of these tissues when transplanted. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: Herein, we assessed the hitherto ill-defined contribution of the early innate immune response in CRT after transplantation of either ESC derived insulin producing cell clusters (IPCCs) or adult pancreatic islets.
