Generation of functional human pancreatic beta cells in vitro

ABSTRACT: The generation of insulin-producing pancreatic cells from stem cells in vitro would provide an unprecedented cell source for drug discovery and cell transplantation therapy in diabetes. However, insulin-producing cells previously generated from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSC) lack many functional characteristics of bona fide β cells. Here we report a scalable differentiation protocol that can generate hundreds of millions of glucose-responsive β cells from hPSC in vitro. These stem cell derived cells (SC) express markers found in mature β cells, flux Ca2+ in response to glucose, package insulin into secretory granules and secrete quantities of insulin comparable to adult β cells in response to multiple sequential glucose challenges in vitro. Furthermore, these cells secrete human insulin into the serum of mice shortly after transplantation in a glucose-regulated manner, and transplantation of these cells ameliorates hyperglycemia in diabetic mice. Differentiated cells were sorted and processed for RNA isolation using the MARIS protocol published previously (PMID: 24516164.) Human embryonic stem cell (hESC) line HUES8 was differentiated into SC-beta cells. Two biological replicates were analyzed. Those data were normalized together with and compared to existing, previously published data from Hrvatin et al. ( (PMID: 24516164) from human islet -derived insulin+ cells, undifferentiated HUES8 hES cells, and insulin+ cells derived from HUES8 cells according to previously published protocols.

Differentiated human stem cells resemble fetal, not adult, Î² cells

Project description:Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) have the potential to generate any human cell type, and one widely recognized goal is to make pancreatic Î² cells. To this end, comparisons between differentiated cell types produced in vitro and their in vivo counterparts are essential to validate hPSC-derived cells. Genome-wide transcriptional analysis of sorted insulin-expressing (INS(+)) cells derived from three independent hPSC lines, human fetal pancreata, and adult human islets points to two major conclusions: (i) Different hPSC lines produce highly similar INS(+) cells and (ii) hPSC-derived INS(+) (hPSC-INS(+)) cells more closely resemble human fetal Î² cells than adult Î² cells. This study provides a direct comparison of transcriptional programs between pure hPSC-INS(+) cells and true Î² cells and provides a catalog of genes whose manipulation may convert hPSC-INS(+) cells into functional Î² cells RNA is isolated and processed using MARIS from the following samples: H1 human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) in duplicate, HUES8 hESCs in duplicate, human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) in duplicate, H1 cells differentiated to a stage in which insulin-expressing cells are present (stage 6) in duplicate, HUES8 cells differentiated to stage 6 in duplicate, hiPSCs differentiated to stage 6, insulin-expressing cells sorted from H1 cells differentiated to stage 6 in duplicate, insulin-expressing cells sorted from HUES8 cells differentiated to stage 6 in duplicate, insulin-expressing cells sorted from hiPSCs differentiated to stage 6 in duplicate, human week 16 fetal pancreata in duplicate, insulin-expressing cells sorted from human week 16 fetal pancreata in triplicate, adult human pancreatic islets in triplicate, and insulin-expressing cells sorted from adult human pancreatic islets in triplicate.

Generation of Stem Cell-Derived Î² Cells from Type 1 Diabetic Patients

Project description:We recently reported the scalable in vitro production of functional stem cell-derived Î² cells. Here we extend this approach to generate SC-Î² cells from Type 1 diabetic patients (T1D), a cell type that is destroyed during disease progression and has not been possible to extensively study. These cells express Î² cell markers, respond to glucose both in vitro and in vivo, prevent alloxan-induced diabetes in mice, and respond to anti-diabetic drugs. Furthermore, we use an in vitro disease model to demonstrate the cells respond to different forms of Î² cell stress. Using these assays, we find no major differences in T1D SC-Î² cells compared to SC-Î² cells derived from non-diabetic patients (ND). These results show that T1D SC-Î² cells can be used for the treatment of diabetes, drug screening, and the study of Î² cell biology. Differentiated cells were sorted and processed for RNA isolation using the MARIS protocol published previously (PMID: 24516164.) Human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC) line were differentiated into SC-beta cells or dysfunctional, polyhormonal cells (PH). Four biological replicates were assessed with differentiation to both SC-beta and PH cells. Those data were normalized together with and compared to existing, previously published data from Hrvatin et al. (PMID: 24516164) and Pagliuca et al. (PMID: 25303535) from human islet-derived insulin+ cells, undifferentiated HUES8 hES cells, SC-beta cells derived from HUES8 and PH cells derived from HUES8 according to previously published protocols.

A stem cell model of diabetes due to glucokinase deficiency

Project description:Diabetes is a disorder characterized by loss of beta cell mass and/or beta cell function, leading to deficiency of insulin relative to metabolic need. To determine whether stem cell derived-beta cells faithfully reflect the phenotypes of a diabetic subject, we generated induced pluripotent stem cells from diabetic subjects (MODY2) with heterozygous loss-of-function of the gene encoding glucokinase (GCK). These stem cells differentiated into beta cells with an efficiency comparable to controls, and expressed markers of mature beta cells, urocotin-3 and zinc transporter 8 upon transplantation into mice. While insulin secretion in response to arginine or other secretagogues was identical to cells from healthy controls, GCK mutant beta cells required higher glucose levels to stimulate insulin secretion. Importantly this glucose-specific phenotype was fully reverted upon gene sequence correction by homologous recombination. Our results demonstrate that stem cell-derived beta cells reflect beta cell-autonomous phenotypes of MODY2 subjects, providing a platform for mechanistic analysis of specific genotypes on beta cell function. Induced pluripotent stem cells with munations in the glucokinase gene were differentiationed into pancreas cells using published protocol (D'Amour et al, 2006) with certain modifications. 1 million cells(fibroblast or stem cells or differentiated pancreatic cells) was used for RNA extraction and labeling using the Illumina total prep RNA amplification kit.

RNA Seq of IAPP expressing SC-β cells

Project description:Islet transplantation for treatment of diabetes is limited by availability of donor islets and requirements for immunosuppression. Stem cell-derived islets might circumvent these issues. SC-islets effectively control glucose metabolism post transplantation, but do not yet achieve full function in vitro with currently published differentiation protocols. We aimed to identify markers of mature subpopulations of SC-β cells by studying transcriptional changes associated with in vivo maturation of SC-β cells using RNA-seq and co-expression network analysis. The β cell-specific hormone islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP) emerged as the top candidate to be such a marker. IAPP+ cells had more mature β cell gene expression and higher cellular insulin content than IAPP- cells in vitro. IAPP+ INS+ cells were more stable in long-term culture than IAPP- INS+ cells and retained insulin expression after transplantation into mice. Finally, we conducted a small molecule screen to identify compounds that enhance IAPP expression. Aconitine up-regulated IAPP and could help to optimize differentiation protocols.

Single-Cell Transcriptome Profiling Reveals β Cell Maturation in Stem Cell-Derived Islets after Transplantation

Project description:SC-β cells and native β cells from cadaveric islets have different transcriptome profiles. In this study, we demonstrate that SC-β cells can acquire mature gene signatures via transplantation in mice for 6 months. MAFA, a marker for mature β cells, is expressed and resulted in significant improvements in insulin release and glucose regulation in diabetic mice.

Engineered stomach tissue as a renewable source of functional beta-cells for blood glucose regulation

Project description:The gastrointestinal (GI) epithelium is a highly regenerative tissue with the potential to provide a renewable source of insulin+ cells using cellular reprogramming. Here, we describe the antral stomach as a previously unrecognized source highly amenable to conversion into functional insulin-secreting cells. Native antral endocrine cells share a surprising degree of transcriptional similarity with pancreatic beta-cells. Expression of beta-cell reprogramming factors in vivo converts antral cells efficiently into insulin+ cells with close molecular and functional resemblance to beta-cells. Our data further indicate that the intestine-expressed Cdx2 acts as a molecular barrier for beta-cell conversion. Induced GI insulin+ cells can suppress hyperglycemia over at least 6 months and they regenerate rapidly after ablation from the native stem-cell compartment. Transplantation of bioengineered stomach mini-organs also produced insulin+ cells and suppressed hyperglycemia. These studies demonstrate the potential of developing engineered stomach tissue as a renewable source of functional beta-cells for glycemic control. Total RNA extracted from primary mouse tissues: Stomach (3 replicates), Duodenum (3 replicates) and Colon (2 replicates)

SC-beta Cell in vivo Maturation

Project description:Stem cell-derived β (SC-β) cells are an emerging regenerative therapy to compensate for loss of functional β cell mass in diabetes. Glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in SC-β cells is variable in vitro but stabilizes after transplantation and maturation under the kidney capsule of mice. We identified mechanisms correlated with functional maturation using RNA-sequencing and co-expression network analysis. In vivo maturation enhanced glucose-stimulated but not basal insulin secretion, up-regulated β cell hormones IAPP and ADCYAP1, increased expression of maturation markers MAFA, UCN3, and SIX2, and resolved endocrine identity of incompletely specified polyhormonal cells produced during differentiation. Transplantation promoted calcium signalling, induced exocytotic machinery supporting hormone secretion and improved stimulus-secretion coupling that fine-tunes insulin secretion. Growth hormone signalling emerged as candidate driver of in vivo maturation and was confirmed in vitro. Also, a large co-expression module correlated with HbA1c and was enriched in genes up-regulated during in vivo maturation but down-regulated in hyperglycaemic and palmitate stress conditions, suggesting that transcriptional maturation of SC-β cells in vivo mirrors processes lost in diabetic β cells.

Dynamic regulation of miRNA and mRNA signatures during in vitro pancreatic differentiation (miRNA)

Project description:The remarkable differentiation capacity of pluripotent stem cells into any adult cell types have enabled researchers to model human embryonic development and disease process in dishes, as well as deriving specialized cells for replacing damaged tissues. Type 1 diabetes is a degenerative disease characterized by autoimmune destruction of the insulin-producing beta islet cells in the pancreas. Recent advances have led to the establishment of different methods to direct differentiation of human or mouse pluripotent stem cells toward beta cell lineages. However, existing strategies have not yet succeeded in generating fully functional beta cells in vitro. Thus, it remains a major challenge to identify novel regulators of beta cell differentiation and maturation, and the islet-specific genetic and epigenetic regulatory networks are logical targets. To obtain a comprehensive view of the microRNA expression pattern during in vitro directed differentiation of hPSC into pancreatic beta islet cells, we collected 16 samples of 6 stages of differentiated derivatives, 2 samples of human fetal pancreas and 5 samples of purified human beta islet cells for analysis. With these samples, we performed genome-wide microRNA expression profiling using the Illumina Human v2 MicroRNA Expression BeadChips (1,146 assays).
