Multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells enhance insulin secretion from human islets via N-Cadherin interaction and prolong function of transplanted encapsulated islets in mice

Sandrine Gerber, Jutta Christine Wandrey, Redouan Mahou

Background: Multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) enhance viability and function of islets of Langerhans. We aimed to examine the interactions between human MSC and human islets of Langerhans that influence the function of islets. Methods: Human MSC ...

Tuning the Properties of Hydrogel Microspheres by Adding Chemical Cross-linking Functionality to Sodium Alginate

Sandrine Gerber, Jutta Christine Wandrey, François Rémi Pierre Noverraz, Solène Marcelle Françoise Marie Passemard, Redouan Mahou, Françoise Borcard, Virginia Crivelli, Léo Bühler

Two novel types of hydrogel microspheres (MS) are presented. First, one-component microspheres (1-comMS) were produced from sodium alginate (Na-alg) equipped with thiolfunctionalized hydroxyl groups. The functionalization pathway included the conversion of ...

Microencapsulated human mesenchymal stem cells decrease liver fibrosis in mice

Jutta Christine Wandrey, Redouan Mahou, Yannick Müller

Background & Aims: Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) transplantation was shown to be effective for the treatment of liver fibrosis, but the mechanisms of action are not yet fully understood. We transplanted encapsulated human MSCs in two mouse models of liver fi ...

Survival of Free and Encapsulated Human and Rat Islet Xenografts Transplanted into the Mouse Bone Marrow

Jutta Christine Wandrey, Redouan Mahou, Yannick Müller

Bone marrow was recently proposed as an alternative and potentially immune-privileged site for pancreatic islet transplantation. The aim of the present study was to assess the survival and rejection mechanisms of free and encapsulated xenogeneic islets tra ...
