One of the great promises of stem-cell biology is to use a
patient's own cells as a template to build a real, working
organ or tissue in the lab. One prime example: a treatment
fordiabetes by turning stem cells into working pancreatic
beta cells, which release insulin.
"The existing beta cells that our lab and others had created
were 90 percent of the way there. But 90 percent still means
not functional." Ron Evans, a molecular biologist at the Salk
Institute.
Evans compares the stem-cell-derived beta cells they first
made to a darkened room. "If you walk into that room, there
may be everything in it that you need to be a complete room,
with furniture and chairs and everything else. But it's dark.
And the key is: what do you need to turn on the light?"
That light switch, Evans discovered, is a gene-called estrogen-
related receptor gamma. Flip it on, and it activates a genetic
circuit that ramps up mitochondria production, powers up the
cell, and endows the almost-functional beta cells with the
ability to sense glucose and release insulin in response.
Evans's team recently used that trick to transform stem cells
into beta cells that worked just like they would in a healthy
pancreas. When they transplanted those cells into mice with a
mouse version of diabetes, blood glucose fell to normal levels
in half the rodents. The results are in the journal Cell
Metabolism. [Eiji Yoshihara et al, ERR gama Is Required for the
Metabolic Maturation of Therapeutically Functional Glucose-
Responsive beta Cells]
Next, Evans says he'll replicate the test in diabetic primates.
"Primates get diabetes in a fashion that's very similar to people.
So if it works in a primate, very high probability that it's
going to work in people." If it does, we might someday replace
a shot of insulin with a shot of cells.
