It has been shown that transplantation of pancreas or islolated islets can cure the disease. However, this aproach is limted by the requirement of large numbers of high quality islets and the shortage of organ donors. Porcine islets are a promising alternative cell source, but translation of pig islet transplantation into clinical practice is hampered by the strong xenoreactive rejection.
