The Integrated Islet Distribution Program (IIDP) is currently the largest source of human islets for research in the U.S. The IIDP Human Islet Phenotyping Program (HIPP) provides standardized islet assessment and makes these data available to researchers. Since 2016, HIPP has phenotyped 337 islet samples from nondiabetic organ donors (40%F / 60%M, 45±12 years, BMI 29.0±5.4; 52% European, 26% Latino, 8% African, 3% Asian, and 11% other ancestry) . To define the islet structure-function relationships, we integrated physiological profiling of hormone secretion with islet cell composition measured by immunohistochemistry. We found that % β cells varied significantly (range 34 - 92%; CV 21%) and had a strong negative correlation with % α (range 3 - 59%; CV 33%; r -0.95; p Disclosure M. Brissova: None. G.
