Pancreatic acinar cells in adult human islets of Langerhans.

abstract：:Cryopreservation of pancreatic islets provides many advantages for clinical transplantation. Unfortunately, the freezing and thawing processes lead to a significant loss of islets. In this study, an attempt was made to increase the yield and viability of islets after cryopreservation and thawing. By using canine islet...
