Abstract

Fragments of embryonal rat pancreas are grafted into the submandibular salivary gland of adult rats with alloxan-induced diabetes. The grafts are not rejected within a 4-week period and contain functionally active insulinocytes. Active function of the endocrine pancreatic fragments is confirmed by a significant increase in the blood content of immunoreactive insulin.
