Figure 7. Amelioration of diabetes by Ad-PNM-transduced B13 cells.

Figure 7

(A) Mice were given STZ to induce diabetes at day 0. Cells were transplanted under the kidney capsule at day 7 (grey arrow). Blood glucose levels were then measured every 2 days. At day 17 the transplanted kidneys were removed and analysed for the presence of graft cells (black arrow). Δ, Ad-GFP-treated cells (control); ■, Ad-PNM-treated cells, n=3 and one mouse died after kidney removal; ●, Ad-PNM-treated but without successful engraftment, n=3. Results are means±S.E.M. (B) Explanted kidneys were stained for insulin (red), E-cadherin (green) and DAPI (blue). Scale bar=100 μm.
