Journal ArticleDOI
The unique cytoarchitecture of human pancreatic islets has implications for islet cell function
Over Cabrera,Dora M. Berman,Norma S. Kenyon,Camillo Ricordi,Per Olof Berggren,Per Olof Berggren,Aiejandro Caicedo +6 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that the unique cellular arrangement of human islets has functional implications for islet cell function.
Journal ArticleDOI
Expanded T cells from pancreatic lymph nodes of type 1 diabetic subjects recognize an insulin epitope
Sally C. Kent,Yahua Chen,Lisa Bregoli,Sue M. Clemmings,Norma S. Kenyon,Camillo Ricordi,Bernhard J. Hering,David A. Hafler +7 more
TL;DR: Results identify insulin-reactive, clonally expanded T cells from the site of autoinflammatory drainage in long-term type 1 diabetics, indicating that insulin may indeed be the target antigen causing autoimmune diabetes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-term survival and function of intrahepatic islet allografts in rhesus monkeys treated with humanized anti-CD154
Norma S. Kenyon,Maria Chatzipetrou,Michele Masetti,Alessandra Ranuncoli,Maria Oliveira,Joseph L. Wagner,Allan D. Kirk,David M. Harlan,Linda Burkly,Camillo Ricordi +9 more
TL;DR: In striking contrast to all previously tested strategies, transplantation of an adequate number of functional islets under the cover of anti-CD154 (hu5c8) monotherapy consistently allows for allogeneic islet engraftment and long-term insulin independence in this highly relevant preclinical model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Islet transplantation in type 1 diabetes mellitus using cultured islets and steroid-free immunosuppression: Miami experience.
Tatiana Froud,Camillo Ricordi,David A. Baidal,Muhammad M. Hafiz,Gaston Ponte,Pablo Cure,Antonello Pileggi,Raffaella Poggioli,Hirohito Ichii,Aisha Khan,J V. Ferreira,Alberto Pugliese,Violet Esquenazi,Norma S. Kenyon,Rodolfo Alejandro +14 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that transplantation of cultured human islet allografts results in reproducible insulin independence in all subjects under this immunosuppressive regimen, comparable to that of freshly transplanted islets (Edmonton protocol).
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, a double-blind, phase 1/2a, randomized, controlled trial was performed to determine safety and explore efficacy of umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell (UC-MSC) infusions in subjects with COVID-19 ARDS.
