Outline of Final Research Achievements

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) may improve the efficiency of transplantation of myogenic cells into dystrophic muscle, because they have anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory properties, protect cells from apoptosis, and secrete factors which support muscle growth. We induced MSCs (iMSC) from hiPSCs. FACS revealed that iMSC express MSC markers, CD73, CD90 and CD105. iMSC could be induced to differentiate into osteogenic, chondrogenic, and adipogenic cells.iMSCs showed higher proliferative potential than human bone marrow-derived MSCs (BM-MSC). Both MSCs promoted the differentiation of human myoblasts, when co-cultured by using the transwell, suggesting that MSCs secrete soluble factors which promote muscle differentiation. Unexpectedly, co-transplantation of iMSC with hiPSC-derived myogenic cells into immuno-deficient DMD model mice did not produce dystrophin-positive myofibers. The factors which inhibit differentiation of hiPSC-derived myogenic cells in vivo remain to be clarified.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

筋ジストロフィーにおいては骨格筋線維が変性・壊死し、それを再生する組織幹細胞である筋衛星細胞の機能も病気の進行に伴い低下してくる。その一因として、骨格筋の間葉系前駆細胞の機能の低下があると言われている。我々はヒトiPS細胞から誘導した間葉系前駆細胞がヒト多能性幹細胞(iPS細胞)から誘導した筋前駆細胞の筋分化をin vitroにおいて促進することを明らかにした。今後は共移植に用いることで、その治療用細胞としての有用性と安全性を示すとともに、骨格筋の恒常性維持及び筋ジストロフィーの分子病態における間葉系前駆細胞の機能も明らかにしていく予定である。
