Improved function and proliferation of adult human beta cells engrafted in diabetic immunodeficient NOD-scid IL2rγ(null) mice treated with alogliptin
PURPOSE: Dipeptidyl-peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors are known to increase insulin secretion and beta cell proliferation in rodents. To investigate the effects on human beta cells in vivo, we utilize immunodeficient mice transplanted with human islets. The study goal was to determine the efficacy of a...
