Can Islet Transplantation Possibly Reduce Mortality in Type 1 Diabetes by Jeffrey S. Isenberg, Fouad Kandeel

“…Recent analysis of mortality in several cohorts suggests that IT has possible survival benefits when used alone or in conjunction with renal transplantation. Multi-center prospective studies with long-term follow-up of individuals that receive stand-alone IT versus individuals who qualify for but do not undergo the procedure would seem reasonable to undertake to confirm an IT survival benefit.…”

The Role of Humoral Alloreactivity in Liver Transplantation: Lessons Learned and New Perspectives by Elaine Y. Cheng

“…In this article the evidence on the clinicopathologic effects of donor-specific alloantibodies in liver transplantation will be examined and interpreted in parallel with lessons learned from renal transplantation. The unique anatomic and immunologic features of the liver will be reviewed to gain new insights into the complex interactions between humoral immune system and the liver allograft.…”
