Project description:β cell proliferation rates decline with age and adult β cells have limited self-duplicating activity for regeneration, which predisposes to diabetes. Here we show that, among MYC family members, Mycl was expressed preferentially in proliferating immature endocrine cells. Genetic ablation of Mycl caused a modest reduction in cell proliferation of pancreatic endocrine cells in neonatal mice. By contrast, systemic expression of Mycl in mice stimulated proliferation in pancreatic islet cells and resulted in expansion of pancreatic islets without forming tumors in other organs. Single-cell RNA sequencing and genetic tracing experiments revealed that the expression of Mycl provoked transcription signatures associated with immature proliferating endocrine cells and stimulated self-duplication in adult hormone-expressing cells. The expanded hormone-expressing cells ceased proliferation but persisted after withdrawal of Mycl expression. Remarkably, a subset of the expanded α cells gave rise to insulin-producing cells after the withdrawal. Moreover, transient Mycl expression in vivo was sufficient to normalize increased blood glucose levels in diabetic mice evoked by chemical ablation of β cells. In vitro expression of Mycl similarly provoked active replication without inducing apoptosis in adult hormone-expressing islet cells, even those from aged mice. Furthermore, the expanded islet cells functioned in diabetic mice after transplantation. Finally, we show that MYCL stimulated self-duplication of human adult cadaveric islet cells. Collectively, these results demonstrate that sole induction of Mycl expands adult β cells both in vivo and in vitro. Moreover, islet cell-specific reprogramming via transient Mycl transduction elicits endogenous expansion of insulin-producing cells in adult pancreas through both self-duplication of β cells and transdifferentiation ofα cells into insulin-producing cells, which may provide a regenerative strategy of β cells.

Project description:Natural and stable cell identity switches, where terminally-differentiated cells convert into different cell-types when stressed, represent a widespread regenerative strategy in animals, yet they are poorly documented in mammals. In mice, some glucagon-producing pancreatic α-cells become insulin expressers upon ablation of insulin-secreting β-cells, promoting diabetes recovery. Whether human islets also display this plasticity for reconstituting β-like cells, especially in diabetic conditions, remains unknown. Here we show that two different islet non-β-cell types, α- and γ–cells, obtained from deceased non-diabetic or diabetic human donors can be lineage-traced and induced to produce insulin and secrete it in response to glucose. When transplanted into diabetic mice, converted human α-cells reverse diabetes and remain producing insulin even after 6 months. Insulin-producing α-cells maintain α-cell markers, as seen by deep transcriptomic and proteomic characterization, and display hypo-immunogenic features when exposed to T-cells derived from diabetic patients. These observations provide conceptual evidence and a molecular framework for a mechanistic understanding of in situ cell plasticity in islet cells, as well as in other organs, as a therapy for degenerative diseases by fostering the highly-regulated intrinsic cell regeneration.

Project description:Adult stem cells represent an invaluable resource that can be harnessed for therapeutic tissue repair. Gut stem cells are accessible by biopsy and grow indefinitely in culture as organoids or cell lines. Human fetal gut can generate rare insulin-secreting cells. However, the short lifespan of gut cells, amounting to only days in situ, calls into question the feasibility of producing stable and durable gut insulin-secreting cells as a potential engraftable therapeutic. Here, we show that cultured human stomach stem cells can be directed to generate pancreatic islet-like organoids containing long-lived gastric insulin-secreting (GINS) cells that resemble pancreatic b-cells in molecular hallmarks and function. After sequential activation of the inducing factors NGN3 and PDX1-MAFA, gastric stem cells passed through a SOX4High endocrine and a GalaninHigh precursor state before adopting the b-cell fate, at efficiencies exceeding 80%. GINS cells acquired glucose-stimulated insulin secretion 10 days post differentiation and restored glucose homeostasis for over 100 days in diabetic mice after transplantation. This study establishes a promising approach to procuring autologous human insulin producers for diabetes treatment, and further expands the already considerable therapeutic opportunities for gut stem cells.
