Local immunomodulation with Fas ligand-engineered biomaterials achieves allogeneic islet graft acceptance

Islet transplantation is a promising therapy for type 1 diabetes. However, chronic immunosuppression to control rejection of allogeneic islets induces morbidities and impairs islet function. T-effector cells are responsible for islet allograft rejection and express Fas death receptor following activ...
