Summary:
A combination of human
stem cell transplantation and antidiabetic drugs proved to be highly effective
at improving body weight and glucose metabolism in a mouse model of type 2
diabetes. The findings could set the stage for clinical trials to test the
first stem cell-based approach for insulin replacement in patients with type 2
diabetes.

A combination of human
stem cell transplantation and antidiabetic drugs proved to be highly effective
at improving body weight and glucose metabolism in a mouse model of type 2
diabetes. The findings, published March 19th by Stem
Cell Reports, could set the stage for clinical trials to test the
first stem cell-based approach for insulin replacement in patients with type 2
diabetes.
Type 2 diabetes, which accounts for 90%-95% of the now approaching 400
million cases of diabetes worldwide, is currently treated by oral medication,
insulin injections, or both to control blood glucose levels. However, insulin
delivery is imprecise, onerous, and often promotes weight gain, while drugs do
not work in some patients and may cause gastrointestinal problems or low blood
glucose levels, highlighting the strong need for better treatment options.
To address this need, senior study author Timothy Kieffer of the University
of British Columbia collaborated with BetaLogics, a division of Janssen
Research & Development, LLC, and tested a promising stem cell
transplantation approach.
First, they fed mice a high-fat diet to induce obesity, low responsiveness
to insulin, and high blood glucose levels--the hallmarks of type 2 diabetes.
The mice then received transplants of encapsulated pancreatic progenitor cells
derived from human embryonic stem cells. These transplanted cells matured into
insulin-secreting beta cells, resulting in improvements in insulin sensitivity
and glucose metabolism. Moreover, stem cell transplantation combined with
currently available antidiabetic drugs resulted in rapid weight loss in the
mice and more significant improvements in glucose metabolism compared with
either treatment alone.
Moving forward, the researchers will use their mouse model of type 2
diabetes to test the effectiveness of transplanting more mature
insulin-producing cells that could potentially reverse symptoms of diabetes
faster and at a lower dose compared to pancreatic progenitor cells.
A similar stem cell-based transplantation approach recently obtained clearance
from the US Food and Drug Administration and Health Canada to be tested in
patients with type 1 diabetes in phase1/2 clinical trials sponsored by a
regenerative medicine company called ViaCyte.
"Success in these clinical trials could pave the way for testing in
patients with type 2 diabetes," Kieffer says. "Our hope is that a
stem cell-based approach to insulin replacement will ultimately improve glucose
control in patients with both type 1 and type 2 diabetes, resulting in
healthier, longer lives."
