| Research Abstract |
In the mouse islet transplant model with, neovascularisation around the transplanted islets was confirmed one week after transplant and was completed three weeks after transplant, The neovascularity increased by transplanting endothelial progenitor cells (EPC) jointly. By the pathological analysis using a GFP mouse, EPC remained in three weeks after transplant. Neovascularisation derived from EPC occurred in predominance around transplanted islets. However, by induction of EPC, the glucose tolerance of the diabetes mouse was not improved.
