De novo sirolimus-based immunosuppression after liver transplantation for hepatocellular carcinoma: long-term outcomes and side effects.

abstract：:Healthy rat islets were encapsulated in alginate-polylysine-alginate capsules measuring 0.25-0.35 mm in diameter using a modified encapsulation technique. The encapsulated islets were transplanted intraperitoneally in nonimmunosuppressed streptozotocin-induced diabetic BALB/c mice. The diabetic condition of the experi...
