Production of tissue factor by pancreatic islet cells as a trigger of detrimental thrombotic reactions in clinical islet transplantation

TL;DR: Blockade of TF represents a new therapeutic approach that might increase the success of islet transplantation in patients with type 1 diabetes, in terms of both the risk of intraportal thrombosis and the need for islets from more than one donor.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tissue factor produced by the endocrine cells of the islets of Langerhans is associated with a negative outcome of clinical islet transplantation.

TL;DR: It is shown that islets intended for islet transplantation produce tissue factor in both the transmembrane and the alternatively spliced form and that the membrane-bound form is released as microparticles often associated with both insulin and glucagon granules.
Journal ArticleDOI

Direct medical costs for patients with type 2 diabetes in Sweden

TL;DR: Direct medical costs for patients with type 2 diabetes in Sweden are calculated using data from the Karolinska Institute, University Hospital MAS, Malmö and SmithKline Beecham Pharmaceuticals AB.
Journal ArticleDOI

Current status of clinical islet transplantation.

TL;DR: In order to establish islet transplantation as a widely accepted treatment modality, and make tolerance induction regimes applicable, it is essential that the donor:recipient ratio is brought down to 1:1.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reduced Leptin Concentrations in Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in Sudan

TL;DR: It is shown in a large cohort of Sudanese subjects with type 2 diabetes that circulating leptin levels are lower in diabetic subjects than in controls of similar age and BMI, which may be a consequence of differences in fat distribution.
