Improvement of Rat Islet Viability during Transplantation: Validation of Pharmacological Approach to Induce VEGF Overexpression

Delayed and insufficient revascularization during islet transplantation deprives islets of oxygen and nutrients, resulting in graft failure. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) could play a critical role in islet revascularization. We aimed to develop pharmacological strategies for VEGF overex...
