Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a method for inducing human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells to differentiate into insulin-secreting cells in vitro. Background technique
[0002] Human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells (hAMSCs) have the advantages of multilineage differentiation, low immunogenicity, abundant sources, easy enrichment, strong expansion ability, and no medical ethical issues involved. It has broad application prospects. It has been proved that hAMSCs can differentiate into endothelial and hepatic epithelial cells, cardiomyocyte-like cells, neuron-like cells, osteoblasts, etc. under appropriate induction conditions, but whether they can differentiate into insulin-secreting pancreatic B cells has not been found so far. introduce.
[0003] The occurrence of type 1 diabetes is related to genetic factors, environmental factors and immune mechanism, and its fundamental etiology and pathogenesis is insufficient insulin secretion caused by the destructio...
