Abstract

A population of muscle-derived stem/progenitor cells (MDSPCs) contained in skeletal muscle is responsible for muscle regeneration. MDSPCs from mouse muscle have been shown to be capable of differentiating into pancreatic islet-like cells. However, the potency of MDSPCs to differentiate into functional islet-like cluster remains to be confirmed. The therapeutic potential of autologous MDSPCs transplantation on type 1 diabetes still remains unclear. Here, we investigated a four-stage method to induce the differentiation of MDSPCs into insulin-producing clusters in vitro, and tested the autologous transplantation to control type 1 diabetes in mice. MDSPCs isolated from the skeletal muscles of mice possessed the ability to form islet-like clusters through several stages of differentiation. The expressions of pancreatic progenitor-related genes, insulin, and islet-related genes were significantly upregulated in islet-like clusters determined by the quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. The autologous islet-like clusters transplantation effectively improved hyperglycaemia and glucose intolerance and increased the survival rate in streptozotocin-induced diabetic mice without the use of immunosuppressants.

Adult Stem Cells

Adult stem cells reside in unique niches that provide vital cues for their survival, self-renewal, and differentiation. They hold great promise for use in tissue repair and regeneration as a novel therapeutic strategies. Here is the latest research.

Autoimmune Diabetes & Tolerance

Patients with type I diabetes lack insulin-producing beta cells due to the loss of immunological tolerance and autoimmune disease. Discover the latest research on targeting tolerance to prevent diabetes.

Allogenic & Autologous Therapies

Allogenic therapies are generated in large batches from unrelated donor tissues such as bone marrow. In contrast, autologous therapies are manufactures as a single lot from the patient being treated. Here is the latest research on allogenic and autologous therapies.
