Response of Encapsulated Rat Pancreatic Islets to Hypoxia
Hypoxia contributes to encapsulated pancreatic islet graft failure. To gain insight into the mechanisms that lead to hypoxia-induced graft failure, encapsulated islet function, vitality, and cell replication were assessed after 2 and 5 days of hypoxic (1% O 2 ) and normoxic (20% O 2 ) culture. The m...
