studies have suggested that islet revascularization is concluded within 14 days after
transplantation. We investigated if the vascular density of transplanted islets and ... Cited by 83 - Related articles - BL Direct - All 7 versions
N Zhang, A Richter, J Suriawinata, S Harbaran, J … - Diabetes, 2004 - Am Diabetes Assoc Successful islet transplantation depends on the infusion of sufficiently large quantities of
islets, of which only ∼30% become stably engrafted. Rapid and adequate revascularization
of transplanted islets is important for islet survival and function. Delayed and insufficient ... Cited by 80 - Related articles - BL Direct - All 6 versions
