- Abstract : A recent study reported that encapsulation of human embryonic stem cell (hESC)-derived beta cells by a novel alginate formula protects against foreign body reactivity in immune-competent mice. Intraperitoneal implants corrected a diabetic state for at least 6 months. These observations will stimulate the development of alginate encapsulation towards novel cell therapy protocols for treating type 1 diabetes (T1DM).
