Background. Type 1 diabetes mellitus results from autoimmune destruction ofβ-cells. Insulin-producing cells (IPCs) differentiated from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in human tissues decrease blood glucose levels and improve survival in diabetic rats. We compared the differential ability and the curative effect of IPCs from three types of human tissue to determine the ideal source of cell therapy for diabetes.Methods. We induced MSCs from Wharton’s jelly (WJ), bone marrow (BM), and surgically resected pancreatic tissue to differentiate into IPCs. Thein vitrodifferential function of these IPCs was compared by insulin-to-DNA ratios and C-peptide levels after glucose challenge.In vivocurative effects of IPCs transplanted into diabetic rats were monitored by weekly blood glucose measurement.Results. WJ-MSCs showed better proliferation and differentiation potential than pancreatic MSCs and BM-MSCs.In vivo, WJ-IPCs significantly reduced blood glucose levels at first week after transplantation and maintained significant decrease till week 8. BM-IPCs reduced blood glucose levels at first week but gradually increased since week 3. In resected pancreas-IPCs group, blood glucose levels were significantly reduced till two weeks after transplantation and gradually increased since week 4.Conclusion. WJ-MSCs are the most promising stem cell source forβ-cell regeneration in diabetes treatment.

Background: Amniotic Fluid Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells (AF-MSCs) are adult, fibroblast- like, self-renewable, multipotent stem cells. During the last decade, the therapeutic potential of AF-MSCs, based on their huge differentiation capacity and immunomodulatory characteristics, has been extensively explored in animal models of degenerative and inflammatory diseases. Objective: In order to describe molecular mechanisms responsible for the therapeutic effects of AFMSCs, we summarized current knowledge about phenotype, differentiation potential and immunosuppressive properties of AF-MSCs. Methods: An extensive literature review was carried out in March 2018 across several databases (MEDLINE, EMBASE, Google Scholar), from 1990 to present. Keywords used in the selection were: “amniotic fluid derived mesenchymal stem cells”, “cell-therapy”, “degenerative diseases”, “inflammatory diseases”, “regeneration”, “immunosuppression”. Studies that emphasized molecular and cellular mechanisms responsible for AF-MSC-based therapy were analyzed in this review. Results: AF-MSCs have huge differentiation and immunosuppressive potential. AF-MSCs are capable of generating cells of mesodermal origin (chondrocytes, osteocytes and adipocytes), neural cells, hepatocytes, alveolar epithelial cells, insulin-producing cells, cardiomyocytes and germ cells. AF-MSCs, in juxtacrine or paracrine manner, regulate proliferation, activation and effector function of immune cells. Due to their huge differentiation capacity and immunosuppressive characteristic, transplantation of AFMSCs showed beneficent effects in animal models of degenerative and inflammatory diseases of nervous, respiratory, urogenital, cardiovascular and gastrointestinal system. Conclusion: Considering the fact that amniotic fluid is obtained through routine prenatal diagnosis, with minimal invasive procedure and without ethical concerns, AF-MSCs represents a valuable source for cell-based therapy of organ-specific or systemic degenerative and inflammatory diseases.

Abstract Background MicroRNAs have been recognized as critical regulators for the osteoblastic lineage differentiation of human adipose-derived stem cells (hASCs). Previously, we have displayed that silencing of miR-137 enhances the osteoblastic differentiation potential of hASCs partly through the coordination of lysine-specific histone demethylase 1 (LSD1), bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2), and mothers against decapentaplegic homolog 4 (SMAD4). However, still numerous molecules involved in the osteogenic regulation of miR-137 remain unknown. This study aimed to further elucidate the epigenetic mechanisms of miR-137 on the osteogenic differentiation of hASCs. Methods Dual-luciferase reporter assay was performed to validate the binding to the 3′ untranslated region (3′ UTR) of NOTCH1 by miR-137. To further identify the role of NOTCH1 in miR-137-modulated osteogenesis, tangeretin (an inhibitor of NOTCH1) was applied to treat hASCs which were transfected with miR-137 knockdown lentiviruses, then together with negative control (NC), miR-137 overexpression and miR-137 knockdown groups, the osteogenic capacity and possible downstream signals were examined. Interrelationships between signaling pathways of NOTCH1-hairy and enhancer of split 1 (HES1), LSD1 and BMP2-SMADs were thoroughly investigated with separate knockdown of NOTCH1, LSD1, BMP2, and HES1. Results We confirmed that miR-137 directly targeted the 3′ UTR of NOTCH1 while positively regulated HES1. Tangeretin reversed the effects of miR-137 knockdown on osteogenic promotion and downstream genes expression. After knocking down NOTCH1 or BMP2 individually, we found that these two signals formed a positive feedback loop as well as activated LSD1 and HES1. In addition, LSD1 knockdown induced NOTCH1 expression while suppressed HES1. Conclusions Collectively, we proposed a NOTCH1/LSD1/BMP2 co-regulatory signaling network to elucidate the modulation of miR-137 on the osteoblastic differentiation of hASCs, thus providing mechanism-based rationale for miRNA-targeted therapy of bone defect.

AbstractThe trend of regenerative therapy for diabetes in human and veterinary practices has conceptually been proven according to the Edmonton protocol and animal models. Establishing an alternative insulin-producing cell (IPC) resource for further clinical application is a challenging task. This study investigated IPC generation from two practical canine mesenchymal stem cells (cMSCs), canine bone marrow-derived MSCs (cBM-MSCs) and canine adipose-derived MSCs (cAD-MSCs). The results illustrated that cBM-MSCs and cAD-MSCs contain distinct pancreatic differentiation potential and require the tailor-made induction protocols. The effective generation of cBM-MSC-derived IPCs needs the integration of genetic and microenvironment manipulation using a hanging-drop culture of PDX1-transfected cBM-MSCs under a three-step pancreatic induction protocol. However, this protocol is resource- and time-consuming. Another study on cAD-MSC-derived IPC generation found that IPC colonies could be obtained by a low attachment culture under the three-step induction protocol. Further, Notch signaling inhibition during pancreatic endoderm/progenitor induction yielded IPC colonies through the trend of glucose-responsive C-peptide secretion. Thus, this study showed that IPCs could be obtained from cBM-MSCs and cAD-MSCs through different induction techniques. Also, further signaling manipulation studies should be conducted to maximize the protocol’s efficiency.
