  abstract  = {Purpose: Preclinical experiments on large animals are indispensable for evaluating the effectiveness of diabetes therapies. Miniature swine are well suited for such studies due to their physiological and pathophysiological responses. Methods: We compare two methods for inducing diabetes in Goettingen minipigs (GMP), in five with the beta cell toxin streptozotocin (STZ) and in five other GMP by total pancreatectomy (PE). Glucose homeostasis was assessed with the intravenous glucose-tolerance test (IVGTT) and continual monitoring of interstitial glucose levels. At conclusion of the observation period, the pancreata were examined histologically. Three non-diabetic GMP served as control group. Results: The IVGTT revealed markedly diabetic profiles in both GMP groups. STZ-GMP were found to harbor residual C-peptides and scattered insulin-positive cells in the pancreas. PE-GMP survived the total pancreatectomy only with intensive postoperative care. Conclusions: Although both methods reliably induced diabetes in GMP, the PE-GMP clearly had more health problems and required a greater expenditure of time and resources. The PE-GMP model, however, was better at eliminating endogenous insulin and C-peptide than the STZ-GMP model.},

How effectively this procedure blocked dass li-positive cells, which were mainly dendritic in appearance, was checked by immunostaining renal sections after perfusion and comparing them with in vitro stained sections. Optimum conditions were applied for graft pretreatment before transplantation. This procedure prolonged graft survival, though not satisfactorily from the biological point ofview (9.6 ± 0.8 versus 7.7 ± 0.5 days in the control group; P < 0.02). The dendritic cells were not killed but blocked. Several hours after transplantation, the mAb dissociated from these dass li-positive cells. It was also shown that donor cells migrate into the recipient's spieen early after transplantation. The number of these cells was smaller when the transplanted organ was perfused with the mAb. Further studies are suggested to deplete the graft of donor dendritic cells more adequately. They should also combine graft perfusion with antidass II mAb and recipient immunosuppression at reduced doses.},

With regard to clinical sman bowel transplantation two statements can be made: (l) GVHRIL play a significant role in small bowel trans~ plantation.

DOS induced lymphocytopenia, granUlocytopenia and anemia with a decrease of bone marrow cellularity due to suppression of cell maturation. The effect was dose-dependent and bone marrow as well as blood changes were observed in animals treated with doses from 0.5 to 10.0 mg/kg DOS. Within 14 days after termination of the treatment, rapid recovery with normalization of all hematological parameters was observed. In the light of our data, these hematological side effects may not be a major disadvantage, if DOS is used in doses below 2.5 mg/kg, and for a course of therapy which is limited to 7 to 14 days.},

Therefore, we established a semiautomated digestion method for isolating islets from the porcine pancreas. However, although the isolation technique was standardized and collagenase of controlled quality was used, we were unable to attain high islet yields with a satisfactory degree of reproducibility. One hypothesis was that varying degrees of interference by donor pancreatic enzymes were responsible for this failure. The aim of this stUdy was to examine the kinetics of four types of enzymatic activity during the isolation procedure, as well as their effects on islet yield: collagenase, trypsin, neutral protease, and clostripaln. Our results indicate that while exogenous collagenase activity decreases slightly during the isolation procedure, the activity of the pancreas enzymes neutral protease and trypsin increases. In some cases, trypsin activity increases very strongly. A strong increase in trypsin activity correlates with poor islet yield, whereas low trypsin activity always correlates with high islet yield. Addition of the protease inhibitor Pefabloc to the isolation medium results in low trypsin activity and reproducible high islet yields.},

  abstract  = {It is the aim of this study to characterize and quantify the cells within isolated rat islets that express MHC class 11 antigens. A set of five monoelonal antibodies and two polyclonal antisera of defined specificlty were used in combination with a newly devised procedure for three·dimensional immunofluorescence evaluation of intact islets. It is shown that in addition to passen· ger cells, such as Iymphocytes, macro· phages, and dendrlticlike cells, vascular endothelial and endocrine cells are also capable of expressing class 11 antigens. This expression Is strongly influenced by in vitro culture. pregnancy, streptozotocin- induced diabetes, transplantation trauma, and alloantigenic stimuli. The pos· sible role of the above cells in antigen presentation related to islet transplantation is discussed.},

  abstract  = {Abstract: For isolating islets from the porcine pancreas, we established a semiautomated digestion method. Although the isolation technique was standardized and collagenase of controlled quality was used, until now the reproducibility of high islet yields was unsatisfactory. Our hypothesis was that pancreatic trypsin was responsible for this failure. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of endogenous trypsin on islet yield. Our results demonstrate that a high trypsin level correlates with poor islet yield, whereas low trypsin activity always correlates with high islet yield. Specific inhibition of trypsin results in low trypsin activity and reproducible, high islet yields.},

  year      = {1984},
  abstract  = {In the present study, an attempt was made to characterize the immunomodulating abilities of the cytostatic drugs cydophosphamide, ifosfamide, vinblastine, vincristine, procarbazine, dacarbazine, 6-mercaptopurine, methotrexate, 5-f/uor-uracil and adriamycine in a defined experimental model. Varying combinations of drug plus transplantation alloantigen, (C3H-lymphocytes) were injected into Balb/c mice at different time intervals in vivo. The resulting T-effector cell reactivity was determined in vitro with the microcytotoxicity assay on day + 5 for primary (r) and day + 7 for secondary (2°) sensitized mice. According to the type of drug (alkylating agent vs. vinca alkaloid vs. antimetabolite vs. cytostatic antibiotic), the dosage (20\% LD50 vs. 60\% LD50), the state of sensitization (r vs. 2° sensitized recipients), and the time of drug application in relation to the antigen treatment on day 0 (in varying steps from day -6 to day +4), so-called "pharmaconantigen- variation-effects" (PA VE) were established for each of the investigated drugs in form of reaction profiles. The results were as folIows: (1) For almost alt substances, characteristic reaction profiles involving immunostimulation and/or immunosuppression could be established. Similarities in the profiles of different substances made it possible to classify the drugs according to different reaction types. The reaction type however is not definitely correlated to the biochemical mechanism of drug action. (2) The PA VE are decisively inf/uenced by so me of the biological parameters, such as the time of drug application in relation to the antigen treatment and the state of sensitization but relatively !ittle by the dosage of the drug. (3) Considering the different processes occurring du ring primary and secondary immune responses, the PAVE may give hints for a distinct manipulation of the immunoregulation and thus information on the immunobiological mechanism of drug action.},
