Produktbeschreibung

Transplantation, Bioengineering, and Regeneration of the Endocrine Pancreas, Volume 1, sets a new standard in transplant and regenerative medicine. The book details the-state-of-the-art in modern whole pancreas and islet transplantation, including donor selection, immunosuppression, complications, allograft pathology, and more. As regenerative medicine is changing the premise of solid organ transplantation, this volume catalogs the technologies being developed and the methods being implemented to bioengineer or regenerate the endocrine pancreas in order to more effectively treat diabetes. Edited and authored by unparalleled leaders in the field, this new volume argues for a much needed synergy between organ transplantation and regenerative medicine.

• Provides comprehensive and cutting-edge knowledge of whole pancreas and islet transplantation
• Includes sections that address donor selection, immunosuppression, complications, allograft pathology, and more
• Offers an update on the progress of regenerative medicine research aimed at beta cells replacement in the treatment of diabetes
