Islet auto transplantation following total pancreatectomy: a long-term assessment of graft function.

abstract：:Amyloid was isolated from islets of amyloidotic pancreata of monkey and human beings by solubilization of non-amyloid materials from the pancreas and digestion of contaminating collagen and elastin. The resulting pellet was estimated to be greater than 90% pure islet amyloid. Antibodies specific for monkey islet amylo...
