Alginate Microencapsulation of Human Islets Does Not Increase Susceptibility to Acute Hypoxia

Islet transplantation in diabetes is hampered by the need of life-long immunosuppression. Encapsulation provides partial immunoprotection but could possibly limit oxygen supply, a factor that may enhance hypoxia-induced beta cell death in the early posttransplantation period. Here we tested suscepti...
