Increased plasma amylin in type 1 diabetic patients after kidney and pancreas transplantation: A sign of impaired beta-cell function?
After successful PKT, type 1 diabetic patients with nondiabetic glycemia exhibit increased fasting and post-glucose load plasma amylin, which appears to be linked to impaired beta-cell function. Thus, higher amylin release in proportion to insulin might also reflect impaired beta-cell function in type 1 diabetic patients after PKT.
