21 Macroencapsulation Courtesy of Dr. Tim Kieffer, UBC
polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) 1 million islets, each with 1000 beta cells = 1 billion beta cells. Therefore need about 10 times this device for human pancreas equivalent. Islet transplant = 1 ml pellet = 1000 ul = 25 times the volume – but how pure are human islets, and how many survive? Note the function is minimal compared to normal.

CD28 CD80/86 T-cells play a central role in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases. T cell activation is thought to involve a “two-signal” model, “signal 1” is the interaction of the T cell receptor (TCR) with the antigen-MHC complex, meanwhile “signal 2” is the engagement of the co-stimulatory receptors. Both signals are required for optimal T cell activation; in the absence of signal 2, T cells fail to activate and became anergic. Abatacept binds to CD80/CD86 receptors on antigen presenting cells, thereby inhibiting their binding to the co-stimulatory molecule CD28 on T-cells. By inhibiting full T-cell activation, Abatacept also affects the downstream inflammatory cascade. Abatacept Courtesy of TrialNet
