Severe Combined Immunodeficiency (Bare Lymphocyte Syndrome) 10/01/2001 - "When fetal porcine pancreatic tissue was transplanted into nonobese diabetic-severe combined immune deficiency mice, porcine pancreatic icosapeptide (but not C peptide) was detectable in mouse sera for up to 3 wk after transplantation, with levels highest on d 4. Porcine pancreatic icosapeptide and insulin were detectable in grafts removed from the mice. "
