Immunoisolation of pancreatic B cells by microencapsulation. An in vitro study.

abstract：AIMS/HYPOTHESIS:The paucity of information on the epigenetic barriers that are blocking reprogramming protocols, and on what makes a beta cell unique, has hampered efforts to develop novel beta cell sources. Here, we aimed to identify enhancers in pancreatic islets, to understand their developmental ontologies, and to ...
