IEQ – Islet Equivalent

IEQ islet stands for Islet Equivalent, a standard unit used to measure the total volume of islets (clusters of insulin cells and other hormone-producing cells in the pancreas). It is defined as a single spherical islet with a diameter of 150 µm. The IEQ is a crucial parameter for assessing the quantity of islets for procedures like clinical islet transplantation, which is a treatment for type 1 diabetes.

Modified international procedure

Following a consensus report in 1989 – 1990 by Ricordi et al (1a, 1b) on islet isolation assessment, the total volume of isolated islets is generally expressed in the number of islet equivalents (IEQs) — defined as islets of 150 µm diameter— and many centers use the advocated now classic international procedure (CIP) of sizing all islets in classes with 50-µm increments (i.e., 50–100, 100–150, etc.) for calculation of the number of IEQs. For each class the number of IEQs are calculated by multiplying the islet counts with a conversion factor — based on the mean volume of that class.

A modified international procedure — based on our conventional Leiden procedure (2,3) with islet sizing in classes with 25-µm increments — is suggested for accurate assessment of the IEQs especially when isolation yields mostly smaller islets, in our paper ‘Assessment of isolated islet equivalents’ presented at the 3rd International Congress Cell Transplant Society, Miami (USA) Sep 29 – Oct 2, 1996, in both a poster (4) , and proceedings paper (5). A photo of the original poster , (retrieved somewhat wrinkled 30 years later from my archive), is posted here, as well as a pdf from the (corrected proof) manuscript of the proceedings paper below (6).

The Cell Transplant Society was founded in 1991, and has been renamed the Cell Transplant and Regenerative Medicine Society (CTRMS).

Pioneer work on GLP-1 and GIP incretin hormones

Slideshow (digitally remastered) of my talk Tuesday June 20, 1995 at 10:30, at the 5th International Congress on Pancreas and Islet Transplantation (IPITA), in Miami Beach, FL (USA). My first talk at a world congress presenting the outcome of all our detailed metabolic studies in our preclinical model of canine islet autotransplantation , including our pioneer work on the incretin effects of the gut hormones GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) and GIP (Glucose-dependent Insulinotropic Polypeptide) — now, in 2025, well-known from the drugs that mimic the action of these natural hormones, to treat type 2 diabetes and obesity, by stimulating insulin release, improving blood sugar control, and reducing appetite.

May 1992 we were the first to show direct potentiation of the insulin response from isolated islets by (near-)physiological doses of both the gut hormones GLP-1 and GIP during perifusion (in vitro) of canine islets at 7.5-10 mM glucose levels (1,2), and January 1994 we next confirmed the incretin effect of a (near-)physiological dose of GLP-1 after canine islet transplantation , in a poster presented at the 13th Workshop of the AIDSPIT (aka AIDPIT) Study Group , Igls, Austria, January 23–25, 1994 (3).

Background of the work was posted earlier this year (4) and the work was published Nov 1994 in my PhD thesis Pancreatic islet transplantation , available online (5).

Human Islet Isolation • DRI Miami 1998 • @1MEMO 20250204

Summer 1997, Onno Terpstra, the head of our Surgery Department, asked me to explore our options for starting clinical islet isolation and transplantation in our center – the Leiden University Medical Center (LUMC), and prepare a roadmap.

September 1997, at the IPITA congress in Milan (1) , I learned from Camillo Ricordi, the scientific director of the Diabetes Research Institute (DRI) in Miami – where many guest collaborators work – that visiting the DRI some weeks might be a good option to gain sufficient first work experience in his clinical islet transplantation group.

December 1997, with a ‘Roadmap’, I got the green light to start the operationalization of clinical islet transplantation in the LUMC, first with a working visit to Miami to study the state of the art ‘Ricordi’ method of human islet isolation, and then start the human islet isolation work in our Surgery lab in Leiden.

In 1990 I had already gained some initial research experience in our Leiden Islet Laboratory with a small number of isolations of islets from human donor organs, using our innovative method of density gradient purification based on the UW solution (2).

During the first three months of 1998 I worked intensively with my student colleague Josephine Rijkelijkhuizen so that she would be able to continue our xenotransplantation research project as independently as possible in our Surgery research team.

April 1998, after participating in the 1st Workshop on Clinical Islet Transplantation in New Orleans (3) – the ideal introduction – a fruitful working visit to the DRI in Miami followed (4,5), with intensive collaboration with the DRI team on, among other things, six human islet isolations, and also the simultaneously (parallel) conducted research into the purification of the human islets in our Iodixanol gradient in UW-Solution (6).

Here a slideshow illustrating this team up with the DRI team in Miami , working on human islet isolation and purification in the innovative Iodixanol-UWS gradient, April-May 1998.

The presented results of this innovative islet purification method — developed over nearly 10 years (from 1989) in our Leiden islet laboratory (LUMC) — were the outcome of work I had done spring 1998 with the human islet transplantation group of Camillo Ricordi at the Diabetes Research Institute in Miami , Florida, USA.
