Although application of the Edmonton protocol has markedly improved the outcome for pancreatic islet transplantation, the insulin independence rate after islet transplantation from one donor pancreas has remained low. During the isolation process and subsequent clinical transplantation, islets are subjected to severe adverse conditions that impair survival and ultimately contribute to graft failure. The aim of this study was to map the c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK) pathway that mediates islet loss during islet transplantation and to clarify whether intraportal injection with JNK inhibitor during islet transplantation can prevent islet graft loss.
