A Newly Developed Immunoisolated Bioartificial Pancreas with Cell Sheet Engineering
The term “immunoisolation” refers to the encapsulation of a graft in a selectively permeable membrane. Encapsulation of cellular grafts may provide a way to protect the graft from immune attack without the need for immunosuppressive agents. Although numerous types of artificial materials have been u...
