Primary integumentary xenograft reactivity in the American cockroach, Periplaneta americana.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The potential benefits of islet xenografting in type 1 diabetes include the intriguing, but still unanswered, possibility that the grafted xenoislets may be less subjected to human autoimmune attack. Cytokines may play a major role in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diabetes by causing impairment of insulin r...
