abstract：:Immunosuppressive drugs are routinely used to provide tolerance after whole pancreas and islet cell transplantations. While they are essential in inhibiting graft rejection, little is known about their effect on islet function and beta-cell viability. In this study, we report that tacrolimus, sirolimus, and mycophenol...
