Background
Regarding regenerative medicine for diabetes, accessible sources of Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) for induction of insular beta cell differentiation may be as important as mastering the differentiation process itself.Methodology/Principal Findings
In the present work, stem cells from pancreatic islets (human islet-mesenchymal stem cells, HI-MSCs) and from human bone marrow (bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, BM-MSCs) were cultured in custom-made serum-free medium, using suitable conditions in order to induce differentiation into Islet-like Cells (ILCs). HI-MSCs and BM-MSCs were positive for the MSC markers CD105, CD73, CD90, CD29. Following this induction, HI-MSC and BM-MSC formed evident islet-like structures in the culture flasks. To investigate functional modifications after induction to ILCs, ultrastructural analysis and immunofluorescence were performed. PDX1 (pancreatic duodenal homeobox gene-1), insulin, C peptide and Glut-2 were detected in HI-ILCs whereas BM-ILCs only expressed Glut-2 and insulin. Insulin was also detected in the culture medium following glucose stimulation, confirming an initial differentiation that resulted in glucose-sensitive endocrine secretion. In order to identify proteins that were modified following differentiation from basal MSC (HI-MSCs and BM-MSCs) to their HI-ILCs and BM-ILCs counterparts, proteomic analysis was performed. Three new proteins (APOA1, ATL2 and SODM) were present in both ILC types, while other detected proteins were verified to be unique to the single individual differentiated cells lines. Hierarchical analysis underscored the limited similarities between HI-MSCs and BM-MSCs after induction of differentiation, and the persistence of relevant differences related to cells of different origin.Conclusions/Significance
Proteomic analysis highlighted differences in the MSCs according to site of origin, reflecting spontaneous differentiation and commitment. A more detailed understanding of protein assets may provide insights required to master the differentiation process of HI-MSCs to functional beta cells based only upon culture conditioning. These findings may open new strategies for the clinical use of BM-MSCs in diabetes. 相似文献2.
Studies on pancreatic acinar cells in tissue culture: basal lamina (basement membrane matrix promotes three-dimensional reorganization 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Rat pancreatic acinar cells have been dissociated and maintained in culture under specific conditions which allow the retention of their differentiated state and three-dimensional organization. When cultured on a basal lamina (basement membrane) matrix, the cells first formed large monolayer patches and then reorganized themselves into acini-like structures. The cells regained their polarity around luminal spaces which appeared to be sealed off by well developed junctional complexes. Typical microvilli appeared at the "apical" plasma membrane projecting themselves into the luminal spaces. The intracellular organization resembled that of the cells in situ: a well developed rough endoplasmic reticulum located towards the "base" of the cell around a nucleus; a supranuclearly positioned Golgi apparatus and numerous secretory granules located in the "apical" region of the cell. Immunocytochemistry has revealed the presence of two pancreatic enzymes, amylase and chymotrypsinogen, in the various cellular compartments involved in secretion; the rough endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi cisternae as well as in the secretory granules. Biochemical evaluations have also shown the presence of amylase in the acinar cells and culture medium. These results thus demonstrate that dissociated pancreatic acinar cells maintained in culture under specific conditions reaggregate themselves into acini-like structures and retain their differentiated morphology as well as their ability to secrete. 相似文献

Background
Conditional reprogramming has enabled the development of long-lived, normal epithelial cell lines from mice and humans by in vitro culture with ROCK inhibitor on a feeder layer. We applied this technology to mouse small intestine to create 2D mouse intestinal epithelial monolayers (IEC monolayers) from genetic mouse models for functional analysis.Results
IEC monolayers form epithelial colonies that proliferate on a feeder cell layer and are able to maintain their genotype over long-term passage. IEC monolayers form 3D spheroids in matrigel culture and monolayers on transwell inserts making them useful for functional analyses. IEC monolayers derived from the Cystic Fibrosis (CF) mouse model CFTR ?F508 fail to respond to CFTR activator forskolin in 3D matrigel culture as measured by spheroid swelling and transwell monolayer culture via Ussing chamber electrophysiology. Tumor IEC monolayers generated from the ApcMin/+ mouse intestinal cancer model grow more quickly than wild-type (WT) IEC monolayers both on feeders and as spheroids in matrigel culture.Conclusions
These results indicate that generation of IEC monolayers is a useful model system for growing large numbers of genotype-specific mouse intestinal epithelial cells that may be used in functional studies to examine molecular mechanisms of disease and to identify and assess novel therapeutic compounds.5.

The identification of secreted factors that can selectively stimulate the generation of insulin producing beta-cells from stem and/or progenitor cells represent a significant step in the development of stem cell-based beta-cell replacement therapy. By elucidating the molecular mechanisms that regulate the generation of beta-cells during normal pancreatic development such putative factors may be identified. In the mouse, beta-cells increase markedly in numbers from embryonic day (e) 14.5 and onwards, but the extra-cellular signal(s) that promotes the selective generation of beta-cells at these stages remains to be identified. Here we show that the retinoic acid (RA) synthesizing enzyme Raldh1 is expressed in developing mouse and human pancreas at stages when beta-cells are generated. We also provide evidence that RA induces the generation of Ngn3(+) endocrine progenitor cells and stimulates their further differentiation into beta-cells by activating a program of cell differentiation that recapitulates the normal temporal program of beta-cell differentiation. 相似文献

Background
We have previously obtained a clonal population of cells from human foreskin that is able to differentiate into mesodermal, ectodermal and endodermal progenies. It is of great interest to know whether these cells could be further differentiated into functional insulin-producing cells. 相似文献7.

In vitro propagation of osteoblasts in three-dimensional culture has been explored as a means of cell line expansion and tissue engineering purposes. Studies investigating optimal culture conditions are being conducted to produce bone-like material. This study demonstrates the use of collagen microcarrier beads as a substrate for three-dimensional cell culture. We have earlier reported that microcarriers consisting of cross-linked type I collagen support chondrocyte proliferation and synthesis of extracellular matrix. In this study, we investigated the use of collagen microcarriers to propagate human trabecular bone-derived osteoblasts. Aggregation of cell-seeded microcarriers and production of extracellular matrix-like material were observed after 5 d in culture. Expression of extracellular matrix proteins osteocalcin, osteopontin, and type I collagen was confirmed by messenger ribonucleic acid analysis, radioimmunoassay, and Western blot analysis. The efficient recovery of viable cells was achieved by collagenase digestion of the cell-seeded microcarriers. The collagen microcarrier spinner culture system provides an efficient method to amplify large numbers of healthy functional cells that can be subsequently used for further in vitro or transplantation studies. 相似文献

To understand the role of microtubules and microfilaments in regulating endothelial monolayer integrity and repair, and since microtubules and microfilaments show some co-alignment in endothelial cells, we tested the hypothesis that microtubules organize microfilament distribution. Disruption of microtubules with colchicine in resting confluent aortic endothelial monolayers resulted in disruption of microfilament distribution with a loss of dense peripheral bands, an increase in actin microfilament bundles, and an associated increase of focal adhesion proteins at the periphery of the cells. However, when microfilaments were disrupted with cytochalasin B, microtubule distribution did not change. During the early stages of wound repair of aortic endothelial monolayers, microtubules and microfilaments undergo a sequential series of changes in distribution prior to cell migration. They are initially distributed randomly relative to the wound edge, then align parallel to the wound edge and then elongate perpendicular to the wound edge. When microtubules in wounded cultures were disrupted, dense peripheral bands and lamellipodia formation were lost with increases in central stress fibers. However, following microfilament disruption, microtubule redistribution was not disrupted and the microtubules elongated perpendicular to the wound edge similar to non-treated cultures. Microtubules may organize independently of microfilaments while microfilaments require microtubules to maintain normal organization in confluent and repairing aortic endothelial monolayers. 相似文献

Recent studies have improved our understanding of the physiological function of Notch signaling pathway and now there is compelling evidence demonstrating that Notch is a key regulator of embryonic development and tissue homeostasis. Although further extensive studies are necessary to illustrate the molecular mechanisms, new insights into the role of Notch signaling in pancreas development and diabetes have been achieved. Importantly, the ability to regulate Notch signaling intensity both positively and negatively may have therapeutic relevance for diabetes. Thus, this paper reviews the current knowledge of the roles of Notch signaling in the pancreatic endocrine cell system. 相似文献

Type I collagen is a fibrillar protein, a member of a large family of collagen proteins. It is present in most body tissues, usually in combination with other collagens and other components of extracellular matrix. Its synthesis is increased in various pathological situations, in healing wounds, in fibrotic tissues and in many tumors. After extraction from collagen-rich tissues it is widely used in studies of cell behavior, especially those of fibroblasts and myofibroblasts. Cells cultured in a classical way, on planar plastic dishes, lack the third dimension that is characteristic of body tissues. Collagen I forms gel at neutral pH and may become a basis of a 3D matrix that better mimics conditions in tissue than plastic dishes. 相似文献

The poor prognosis of glioblastoma patients is related to diffuse brain invasion and interaction of tumor cells with extracellular matrices (ECM). We describe expression and function of the FACIT-collagen XVI in glioblastomas. We found upregulation of collagen XVI mRNA as well as protein in glioblastomas as compared to normal cortex. SiRNA knockdown resulted in decreased cell adhesion whereas increased adhesion was observed on surfaces coated with collagen XVI. The migration of glioblastoma cells on this substrate remained unchanged. Our results demonstrate de-novo expression of collagen XVI in glioblastomas as part of the tumor specific remodeling of the ECM. 相似文献

Fetal pancreatic tissue has been suggested as a possible cell source for islet replacement therapy in type 1 diabetes mellitus. This tissue consists of a small amount of beta-cells, but a raft of immature and/or progenitor cells which nonetheless have the potential to proliferate and differentiate into functional insulin-producing cells. Freshly isolated fetal islet-like cell clusters are poorly responsive to glucose challenge, compared with adult islets. Upon exposure to appropriate growth factors and microenvironments, both the expansion and differentiation of fetal islet-like cell clusters can be enhanced. In this study, we investigated the role of exendin-4, a long-acting analogue of glucagon-like peptide 1 in the promotion of functional maturation of transplanted fetal islet-like cell clusters in vivo. Both blood glucose levels and body weights of transplanted diabetic mice treated with exendin-4 improved significantly compared with the transplanted group not subjected to exendin-4 treatment during the 3-month post-transplantation period. In addition, blood glucose levels on formal glucose challenge were also significantly improved by the end of the experiments. In the exendin-4-treated group, there were revascularization and insulin-producing cells as evidenced by positive immunostaining of the Lectins Bandeiraea simplicifolia and insulin, respectively, in the graft bearing kidney. These data indicate that in vivo exendin-4 treatment may enhance the growth and differentiation of fetal mice islet-like cell clusters, thus promoting the functional maturation of the graft after transplantation. 相似文献

Although stem cells are present in various adult tissues and body fluids, bone marrow has been the most popular source of stem cells for treatment of a wide range of diseases. Recent results for stem cells from adipose tissue have put it in a position to compete for being the leading therapeutic source. The major advantage of these stem cells over their counterparts is their amazing proliferative and differentiation potency. However, their pancreatic lineage transdifferentiation competence was not compared to that for bone marrow-derived stem cells. This study aims to identify an efficient source for transdifferentiation into pancreatic islet-like clusters, which would increase potential application in curative diabetic therapy. The results reveal that mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) derived from bone marrow and subcutaneous adipose tissue can differentiate into pancreatic islet-like clusters, as evidenced by their islet-like morphology, positive dithizone staining and expression of genes such as Nestin, PDX1, Isl 1, Ngn 3, Pax 4 and Insulin. The pancreatic lineage differentiation was further corroborated by positive results in the glucose challenge assay. However, the results indicate that bone marrow-derived MSCs are superior to those from subcutaneous adipose tissue in terms of differentiation into pancreatic islet-like clusters. In conclusion, bone marrow-derived MSC might serve as a better alternative in the treatment of diabetes mellitus than those from adipose tissue. 相似文献

Induction of autophagy during extracellular matrix detachment promotes cell survival 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1 下载免费PDF全文
Autophagy has been proposed to promote cell death during lumen formation in three-dimensional mammary epithelial acini because numerous autophagic vacuoles are observed in the dying central cells during morphogenesis. Because these central cells die due to extracellular matrix (ECM) deprivation (anoikis), we have directly interrogated how matrix detachment regulates autophagy. Detachment induces autophagy in both nontumorigenic epithelial lines and in primary epithelial cells. RNA interference-mediated depletion of autophagy regulators (ATGs) inhibits detachment-induced autophagy, enhances apoptosis, and reduces clonogenic recovery after anoikis. Remarkably, matrix-detached cells still exhibit autophagy when apoptosis is blocked by Bcl-2 overexpression, and ATG depletion reduces the clonogenic survival of Bcl-2-expressing cells after detachment. Finally, stable reduction of ATG5 or ATG7 in MCF-10A acini enhances luminal apoptosis during morphogenesis and fails to elicit long-term luminal filling, even when combined with apoptotic inhibition mediated by Bcl-2 overexpression. Thus, autophagy promotes epithelial cell survival during anoikis, including detached cells harboring antiapoptotic lesions. 相似文献
