Chong et al., Nishio et al., and Suri et al. (Reports, 24 March 2006, pp. 1774, 1775, and 1778) confirmed that treating nonobese diabetic (NOD) mice with an immune adjuvant and semisyngenic spleen cells can reverse the disease but found that spleen cells did not contribute to the observed recovery of pancreatic islets. We show that islet regeneration predominately originates from endogenous cells but that introduced spleen cells can also contribute to islet recovery.
庄等人、西尾等人以及苏里等人(《报告》,2006年3月24日,第1774页、1775页和1778页)证实,用免疫佐剂和半同基因脾细胞治疗非肥胖糖尿病(NOD)小鼠可逆转该疾病,但发现脾细胞对观察到的胰岛恢复并无作用。我们发现,胰岛再生主要源于内源性细胞,但引入的脾细胞也有助于胰岛恢复。
