[Islet cell transplantation and diabetes (author's transl)].
It is now apparent that transplantation of islet cells is biologically feasible in experimental animals utilizing adult neonatal or fetal islet cells and employing many different sites for implantation of the islet cells. It is reasonable to expect that with successful acquisition of new basic information in immunology, endocrinology, metabolism and developmental biology islet cell transplantation should be used as a therapeutic approach to human diabetes.
