Human Pancreatic Islets Isolated from Donors with Elevated HbA1c Levels: Islet Yield and Graft Efficacy

Human Pancreatic Islets Isolated from Donors with Elevated HbA1c Levels: Islet Yield and Graft Efficacy

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of elevated donor HbA1c levels (type 2 diabetes, T2D) on the islet yield and functionality postisolation. In this retrospective analysis, donors for islet isolations were classified into two groups: T2D group (HbA1c ≥ 6.5%, n = 18) and normal grou...
