Intravenous glucose tolerance in rhesus macaques. Glucose in peripheral venous blood was measured in (A) three macaques in the Diab-E28-Islets group and (B) three macaques in the Diab-Islets group before any transplantations prior to administration STZ (pre-STZ) and 5 days following administration of STZ (post-STZ). Glucose tolerance was measured in Diab-E28 Islets macaques 4 weeks post-transplantation of E28 pig pancreatic primordia (post-E28) and again 7 weeks after subsequent implantation of porcine islets (post-E28-I) and in Diab-Islets group macaques 7 weeks following implantation of porcine islets (post-islets). Data are shown as mean ± SE (three macaques).
