Research Abstract |
Although pancreatic organ transplantation is only curable option in type I diabetes mellitus, there is an extreme shortage of engraftable donor tissue. Tissue-specific stem cells are uniquely suited for regenerative medicine of diabetes mellitus. To this end, we produced pan-stem cell marker(CD133) knockout/GFP knockin mice. In CD133^(+/GFP) mice, GFP positive cells concentrated on the cells in specific region such as pancreas, liver and intestine, which is thought to be stem cell niche.
