One goal of diabetic regenerative medicine is to instructively convert mature pancreatic exocrine cells into insulin-producing cells. We recently reported that ligand-bound thyroid hormone receptor α (TRα) plays a critical role in expansion of the β-cell mass during postnatal development. Here, we used an adenovirus vector that expresses TRα driven by the amylase 2 promoter (AdAmy2TRα) to induce the reprogramming of pancreatic acinar cells into insulin-producing cells. Treatment with l-3,5,3-triiodothyronine increases the association of TRα with the p85α subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K), leading to the phosphorylation and activation of Akt and the expression of Pdx1, Ngn3, and MafA in purified acinar cells. Analyses performed with the lectin-associated cell lineage tracing system and the Cre/loxP-based direct cell lineage tracing system indicate that newly synthesized insulin-producing cells originate from elastase-expressing pancreatic acinar cells. Insulin-containing secretory granules were identified in these cells by electron microscopy. The inhibition of p85α expression by siRNA or the inhibition of PI3K by prevents the expression of Pdx1, Ngn3, and MafA and the reprogramming to insulin-producing cells. In immunodeficient mice with streptozotocin-induced hyperglycemia, treatment with AdAmy2TRα leads to the reprogramming of pancreatic acinar cells to insulin-producing cells in vivo. Our findings suggest that ligand-bound TRα plays a critical role in β-cell regeneration during postnatal development via activation of PI3K signaling. LY294002相似文献

Somatic cell reprogramming may become a powerful approach to generate specific human cell types for cell-fate determination studies and potential transplantation therapies of neurological diseases. Here we report a reprogramming methodology with which human adipose stem cells (hADSCs) can be differentiated into neural cells. After being reprogrammed with polycistronic plasmid carrying defined factor OCT3/4, SOX2, KLF4 and c-MYC, and further treated with neural induce medium, the hADSCs switched to differentiate toward neural cell lineages. The generated cells had normal karyotypes and exogenous vector sequences were not inserted in the genomes. Therefore, this cell lineage conversion methodology bypasses the risk of mutation and gene instability, and provides a novel strategy to obtain patient-specific neural cells for basic research and therapeutic application. 相似文献

Background aimsDifferentiation or reprogramming of stem cells could be achieved by remodulating the microenvironment, which regulates the fate of cells by soluble factors and contacts. By providing an in vivo-like microenvironment, directional and functional differentiation of stem cells could be achieved in vitro. In this study, the differentiation of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) derived from rat tissues (adipose, rAT; bone marrow, rBM) were analyzed by in vitro and in vivo co-culture experiments. The insulin-producing capacities of islets transplanted under the renal kidney capsule with rAT- and rBM-MSCs were compared and the reduction of hyperglycemia symptoms in rat models was examined.MethodsMSCs prelabeled with green fluorescence protein were co-cultured with islets directly. The insulin production of cells was determined by immunostaining and ELISA. Streptozotocin-induced diabetic rat models were created and MSCs were co-transplanted with the islets under the kidney capsule to confirm the in vitro results.ResultsMSCs were differentiated into insulin-producing cells after 38 days of co-culture, confirmed by insulin and C-peptide stainings. In vivo functional studies revealed that the co-culture of islets with MSCs provided higher differentiation efficiency. The weight gain measurement and glucose tolerance test in the rat group co-transplanted of rAT-MSCs and islets indicate a better recovery than islet-alone transplants and co-transplants of islets and rBM-MSCs.ConclusionsrAT-MSCs could be considered as the cell of choice for cell-based treatment of type 1 diabetes. Because the co-transplantation of islets with MSCs increases the number of insulin-producing cells, this method was suggested for clinical applications. 相似文献

A major problem in the treatment of type 1 diabetes mellitus is the limited availability of alternative sources of insulin-producing cells for islet transplantation. In this study, we investigated the effect of bone morphogenetic protein 4 (BMP-4) treatments of gnotobiotic porcine skin-derived stem cells (gSDSCs) on their reprogramming and subsequent differentiation into insulin-producing cells (IPCs). We isolated SDSCs from the ear skin of a gnotobiotic pig. During the proliferation period, the cells expressed stem-cell markers Oct-4, Sox-2, and CD90; nestin expression also increased significantly. The cells could differentiate into IPCs after treatments with activin-A, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), and nicotinamide. After 15 days in the differentiation medium, controlled gSDSCs began expressing endocrine progenitor genes and proteins (Ngn3, Neuro-D, PDX-1, NKX2.2, NKX6.1, and insulin). The IPCs showed increased insulin synthesis after glucose stimulation. The results indicate that stem cells derived from the skin of gnotobiotic pigs can differentiate into IPCs under the appropriate conditions in vitro. Our three-stage induction protocol could be applied without genetic modification to source IPCs from stem cells in the skin of patients with diabetes for autologous transplantation. 相似文献
