Pathogenesis of Coxsackievirus-B5 acquired from intra-renal porcine islet cell xenografts in diabetic mice

BACKGROUND: We previously demonstrated the ability of a human isolate of Coxsackievirus B5 (CVB5) to productively infect adult porcine islet cells (PICs) in vitro. PICs infected with CVB5 remain viable, and upon transplantation reversed diabetes in C56BL/6 mice for up to 5 days. METHODS: In the pres...
