Healthy human volunteers occasionally elect to undergo surgical removal of the distal half of their pancreas for donation to a relative with type 1 diabetes. This provides the unusual opportunity to study segments of the same pancreas in two markedly different environments, i.e., the normal one of the donor and the unusual one of the ectopically transplanted recipient who is receiving immunosuppressant drugs that can diminish insulin secretion and cause insulin resistance. |
