Widespread clinical application of islet transplantation remains restricted, because of insufficient methods to prevent rejection and autoimmune destruction of islet grafts. In this study we demonstrate long-term function of islets of Langerhans within a capsule of porcine chondrocytes which may serve as an immunoisolation barrier utilizing the immunoprivileged properties of the chondrocyte matrix.
