Abstract
Recently, we and others generated induced tissue-specific stem/progenitor (iTS/iTP) cells. The advantages of iTS/iTP cells compared with induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells are (1) easier generation, (2) efficient differentiation, and (3) no teratomas formation. In this study, we generated mouse induced pancreatic stem cells (iTS-P cells) by the plasmid vector expressing Yes-associated protein 1 (YAP). The iTS-P YAP9 cells expressed Foxa2 (endoderm marker) and Pdx1 (pancreatic marker) while the expressions of Oct3/4 and Nanog (marker of embryonic stem [ES] cells) in iTS-P YAP9 cells was significantly lower compared with those in ES cells. The iTS-P YAP9 cells efficiently differentiated into insulin-expressing cells compared with ES cells. The ability to generate autologous iTS cells may be applied to diverse applications of regenerative medicine.
期刊介绍:
Cell Transplantation, The Regenerative Medicine Journal is an open access, peer reviewed journal that is published 12 times annually. Cell Transplantation is a multi-disciplinary forum for publication of articles on cell transplantation and its applications to human diseases. Articles focus on a myriad of topics including the physiological, medical, pre-clinical, tissue engineering, stem cell, and device-oriented aspects of the nervous, endocrine, cardiovascular, and endothelial systems, as well as genetically engineered cells. Cell Transplantation also reports on relevant technological advances, clinical studies, and regulatory considerations related to the implantation of cells into the body in order to provide complete coverage of the field.
