Abstract excerpt

Islet transplantation can restore glucose homeostasis in those with type 1 diabetes; however, most recipients eventually lose graft function. A noninvasive method to monitor islets following transplantation would enable assessment of their survival and aid the development of therapeutics to prolong graft survival. Here, we show that recombinant lentivirus can be used to engineer human islets to express a positron...
