Investigation of the utility of the 1.1B4 cell as a model human beta cell line for study of persistent enteroviral infection
Abstract The generation of a human pancreatic beta cell line which reproduces the responses seen in primary beta cells, but is amenable to propagation in culture, has long been an important goal in diabetes research. This is particularly true for studies focussing on the role of enteroviral infectio...
