Stomach-derived human insulin-secreting organoids restore glucose homeostasis.


ABSTRACT: Gut stem cells are accessible by biopsy and propagate robustly in culture, offering an invaluable resource for autologous cell therapies. Insulin-producing cells can be induced in mouse gut, but it has not been possible to generate abundant and durable insulin-secreting cells from human gut tissues to evaluate their potential as a cell therapy for diabetes. Here we describe a protocol to differentiate cultured human gastric stem cells into pancreatic islet-like organoids containing gastric insulin-secreting (GINS) cells that resemble β-cells in molecular hallmarks and function. Sequential activation of the inducing factors NGN3 and PDX1-MAFA led human gastric stem cells onto a distinctive differentiation path, including a SOX4High endocrine and GalaninHigh GINS precursor, before adopting β-cell identity, at efficiencies close to 70%. GINS organoids acquired glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in 10 days and restored glucose homeostasis for over 100 days in diabetic mice after transplantation, providing proof of concept for a promising approach to treat diabetes.
