This research aims to improve islet transplantation for Type I diabetes by developing a microencapsulation technique using functional hydrogel coats. The goal is to enhance the immunoisolation of islets, potentially increasing their viability and effectiveness in treatment.
Diabetes mellitus has a Europe prevalence of approximately 48 million people, including approximately 1 million with Type I diabetes.
Despite the availability of exogenous insulin, life expectancy and quality are still diminished by chronic or late complications of the disease.
These complications can be mitigated by restoring near-normal levels of glucose.
