Subcutaneous islet transplantation is a promising treatment for severe diabetes; however, poor engraftment hinders its prevalence. We previously reported that a recombinant peptide (RCP) enhances subcutaneous islet engraftment. However, it is impractical for clinical use because RCP must be removed when transplanting islets. We herein investigated whether a novel bioabsorbable gelatin hydrogel nonwoven fabric (GHNF) could improve subcutaneous islet engraftment. A silicon spacer with or without GHNF was implanted into the subcutaneous space of diabetic mice. Syngeneic islets were transplanted into the pretreated space or intraportally (Ipo group). Blood glucose, intraperitoneal glucose tolerance, immunohistochemistry, CT angiography and gene expression were evaluated. The cure rate and glucose tolerance of the GHNF group were significantly better than in the control and Ipo groups (p |
