Engraftment of cryopreserved islets in STZ-induced diabetes mouse model. (a) Fasting blood glucose measurements in diabetic mice transplanted with 800 fresh, DMSO-cryopreserved or DT6h-cryopreserved islets or vehicle (Matrigel), measured using portable glucose meter (n = 3–4 mice). (b) Fasting blood serum glucose measured using an immunoassay on day 75 days after transplantation (day 91 after first STZ injection). (cf) Fasting blood glucose in individual diabetic mice transplanted with (c) 800 fresh islets, (d) Matrigel/vehicle only, (e) 800 DMSO-cryopreserved islets and (f) 800 DT6h-cryopreserved islets over the time course of the experiments. All plots were produced using GraphPad Prism (version 8.4.1, https://www.graphpad.com). STZ streptozotocin, Tx transplantation.
