In this study, we examined the effect of D‐allose on islets isolated from rat pancreata prior to islet transplantation., Methods Rat islets isolated from fresh pancreata were cultured overnight in Roswell Park Memorial Institute 1640 solution in the absence (group 1) or presence (group 2) of D‐allose. Then we assessed stimulation index of insulin, and cure rate after islet transplantation to diabetic nude mice. We also measured malondialdehyde level and caspase 3 activity of islets after the overnight culture for assessment of the oxidative stress and the apoptosis., Results D‐allose significantly improved insulin secretion of islets. The stimulation index in group 2 was significantly higher than in group 1. Cure rate after transplantation in group 2 was higher than in group 1 especially in the first week. The malondialdehyde level in group 2 was significantly lower than in group 1. But the caspase 3 activities in both groups did not differ., Conclusions D‐allose treatment of isolated islet culture prior to transplantation restored islet function and increased successful transplant rate. The results of this study suggested that D‐allose improved function of damaged islets through its anti‐oxidative activity.}, school = {香川大学, Kagawa University}, title = {Beneficial effect of D-allose for isolated islet culture prior to islet transplantation}, year = {}, yomi = {カシワギ, ヒロタカ} }
