| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
An ultra-thin coating islet structure was achieved by coating the surface of the islet with biocompatible polyethylene glycol-bound lipids (PEG lipids) and branched PEG derivatives. The optimal conditions for the PEG lipid and the branched PEG derivative were investigated and found. Encapsulated porcine pancreatic islets were transplanted into diabetic mice to evaluate the function and safety of the graft. There were no serious adverse events attributable to the graft until 3 months after transplantation, and individuals with normalized blood glucose levels for 3 months.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究のアプローチは多くの１型糖尿病患者、さらに日本人に多いインスリンが不足するタイプの2型糖尿病患者の根治治療につながる。ドナー不足の問題が解消され、免疫抑制剤が不要になれば安全性が高いのみならず医療コストも低く、社会に与えるインパクトが大きい。さらに本研究のコーティング・カプセル技術はiPS細胞由来膵島などの再生医療にも応用可能である。一方、本研究は異種移植・再生医療の実用化を目指すものであり、最先端のフロンティア領域である。
