Pretransplant Induction of HSP-70 in Isolated Adult Pig Islets Decreases Early Islet Xenograft Survival

The heat-induced HSP-70 expression protects rat islet single cells against lysis mediated by nitric oxide (NO), reactive oxygen, and streptozotocin. The present study was performed to investigate the potential antiinflammatory effect of pretransplant heat shock in adult pig islets for subsequent ear...
