Lack of Evidence for Recipient Precursor Cells Replenishing β-Cells in Transplanted Islets

Bone marrow and tissue precursor cells have been postulated to replenish grafts of transplanted islets. Several investigators have reported that bone marrow cells can promote the regeneration of injured islets. In this study, we investigated the potential of recipient-derived precursor cells to form...
