Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We established a six-stage protocol mimicking the developmental processes of pancreatic beta cells for the differentiation of human iPSC to pancreatic beta cells using defined culture media without feeders or serum . Spheroid formation at the pancreatic beta cells stage showed more efficient insulin secretion than did monolyater culture. Cultured cells were transpranted under kidney capsules of streptozotocin-induced diabetic NOD/SCID mice. After cell trans plantation, diabetic mice had lower blood glucose levels, and islet-like struture were detected in vivo. Moreover, 12 weeks after transplantation, Human C-peptide was detected in the mouse serum .Tthese results indicated that iPS-beta cells fanctioned in vio. We also established the iPSC from Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) 5 patient. In the course of differentiation from MODY5-iPS cells into pancratic beta cells, we found that the amount of mutant transcripts was much less than that of wild one.
