Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Cell-based therapies such as allogeneic mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) transplantation for recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB) were explored. However, some hurdles exist to come over in current MSC-based therapies; limited proliferation and limited cell survival. To solve these problems, we focused on keratinocyte-derived induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). Keratinocytes from intact areas of patients might have revertant mosaicism where the pathogenic mutations are spontaneously corrected. In this study, we succeeded to develop MSCs from keratinocytes-derived iPSCs (KC-iPSC-MSCs) of normal human and a RDEB patient. Keratinocytes-derived iPSCs (KC-iPSCs) were cultured with activin A, BIO and BMP4 to induct mesoderm lineage, and then cultured with bFGF and EGF. In 14 days, spindle-shaped cells appeared which showed mesenchymal differentiation. Furthermore, the intravenous injection of the KC-iPSC-MSCs into wounded mice induced human type VII collagen.
