Dynamics of Changes in Metabolic and Hematological Parameters after Transplantation of Pancreatic Islet Cells on TiNi Scaffold in Experimental Diabetes Mellitus

Abstract

The dynamics of the development of the pancreatic islet cells in the porous TiNi scaffold was studied by electron microscopy. Changes in the metabolism of glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin and parameters of the peripheral blood and bone marrow were shown after transplantation of pancreatic islet cells on porous permeable TiNi scaffold during alloxan-induced diabetes. The cells administered on the porous biocompatible scaffold produced more prolonged anti-diabetic effect and normalized hemopoiesis parameters in comparison with their intraperitoneal administration. The experiment on pancreatic islet cells showed that porous permeable TiNi scaffold is a unique cell incubator acceptable for usage for tissue engineering.
