Abstract
Islet Macroencapsulation System for Subcutaneous Transplantation
A novel multilayered macroencapsulation system positions islets within specialized micro-shell layers to maximize their proximity to surrounding host vasculature in subcutaneous tissue. This innovative design improves the supply of nutrients/oxygen, while the optimized islet density facilitates efficient functionality in low-vascular environments, offering a promising solution for enhancing the treatment of type I diabetes. More details can be found in article number 2408329 by Hyun-Wook Kang and co-workers.
