ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the selection criteria of the donor for islet transplantation of Chinese people by analyzing the correlation between pancreas characteristics and success rate of islets isolation.Methods:Data from 113 cases of human islet isolation were collected. According to the result of islet isolation, the donors were divided into two groups, the success group(IEQ≥250 000, purification≥30%, and viability≥80%), and the failure group(IEQ<250 000, or purification<30%, or viability<80%). The modified Ricordi method was used to digest pancreas tissue, and the continuous density gradient method was performed to purify islets. The islets were identified by staining with the Dithizone(DTZ), the islets were analyzed for cell viability and purity.Results:The donor age in success group was significantly younger than failure group in the range of age eligible for this study( t=2.479, P=0.015). Pearson correlation showed that donor age was positively corelated with islet yield( r=-0.214, P=0.047). There was more fat on the pancreas surface in the successful islet isolation group( z=-2.007, P=0.045). The digestibility( t=2.133, P=0.035) and recovery rate( t=5.912, P=0.001) were elevated in success group. Conclusion:The pancreases from younger donors could obtain the higher-yielding islet, the pancreas with more surface fat or with higher weight was associated with islet isolation success in the scope covered by the inclusion criteria of this study.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the correlations of β cell dedifferentiation in non-diabetic subjects with risk factors for type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).Methods:Immunofluorescence staining with insulin and β cell dedifferentiated marker ALDH1A3 was used to evaluate the β cell dedifferentiation levels in 38 non-diabetic and 23 T2DM. Correlation analyses were performed between β cell dedifferentiation levels and available clinical parameters including age, body mass index, HbA 1C level, triglycerides, and cholesterol levels in non-diabetic subjects. Results:β cell dedifferentiation level defined by the positive expression of ALDH1A3 in β cells(ALDH1A3 + INS + cell proportion) was significantly elevated in T2DM subjects( P<0.001). In PreD subjects, ALDH1A3 + INS + cells proportion were decreased( P=0.050) and negatively correlated with HbA 1C( r=-0.44, P=0.006), but not with age and body mass index. The analysis of correlation with lipidemic parameters showed that ALDH1A3 + INS + cells proportion was positively correlated with plasma total cholesterol level( r=0.39, P=0.045), but not plasma total triglyceride. Conclusion:ALDH1A3 + INS + cells were found to be decreased in prediabetes, suggesting that there may be enhanced β-cell identity in prediabetes to compensate for insulin secretion requirements; ALDH1A3 + INS + cells were elevated in people with high plasma total cholesterol levels, suggesting that total cholesterol may be one of the factors that induce β-cell dedifferentiation.

ABSTRACT

Background and Objectives@#Adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ASCs) are recognized as an advantaged source for the prevention and treatment of diverse diseases including type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, alterations in characteristics of ASCs from the aforementioned T2DM patients are still obscure, which also hinder the rigorous and systematic illumination of progression and pathogenesis. @*Methods@#and Results: In this study, we originally isolated peripancreatic adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells from both human type 2 diabetic and non-diabetic donors (T2DM-ASCs, ND-ASCs) with the parental consent, respectively. We noticed that T2DM-ASCs exhibited indistinguishable immunophenotype, cell vitality, chondrogenic differentiation and stemness as ND-ASCs. Simultaneously, there’s merely alterations in migration and immunoregulatory capacities in T2DM-ASCs. However, differing from ND-ASCs, T2DM-ASCs exhibited deficiency in adipogenic and osteogenic differentiation, and in particular, the delayed cell cycle and different cytokine expression spectrum. @*Conclusions@#The conservative alterations of T2DM-ASCs in multifaceted characteristics indicated the possibility of autologous application of ASCs for cell-based T2DM treatment in the future.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effect factors of liver enzymes elevation by monitoring the liver function changes before and after intraportal islet transplantation .Methods 16 diabetic patients who received intraportal islet transplantation in our hospital were analyzed .The levels of aspartic aminotransferase (AST ) ,alanine aminotransferase (ALT )and total bilirubin (TBil)were monitored after islet transplantation .Results Among those 16 diabetic patients who received intraportal islet transplantation ,11 patients showed an increased AST and 8 patients showed an increased ALT ,among which a 2 .5-fold increase in AST was observed in 4 patients and over 1 .5-fold elevation of ALT was observed in 3 patients .The level of TBil were in the normal range before and after transplantation in all patients . Transplanted tissue volume of islet was the main factor for significantly increased AST (P< 0 .05) in this study .It is also shown that the change in portal pressure is related to the AST elevation after islet transplantation .Conclusions The amount of transplanted islet tissue volume is related to the liver enzymes elevation after intraportal islet transplantation .Therefore ,the improvement of the purity of islet to reduce the amount of transplanted tissue could be benefit to prevent the liver injury after islet transplantation .Meanwhile ,the purified islets should be injected as slowly as possible to maintain a stable portal pressure .

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To investigate the effect factors of liver enzymes elevation by monitoring the liver function changes before and after intraportal islet transplantation.@*Methods@#16 diabetic patients who received intraportal islet transplantation in our hospital were analyzed. The levels of aspartic aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT)and total bilirubin (TBil)were monitored after islet transplantation.@*Results@#Among those 16 diabetic patients who received intraportal islet transplantation, 11 patients showed an increased AST and 8 patients showed an increased ALT, among which a 2.5-fold increase in AST was observed in 4 patients and over 1.5-fold elevation of ALT was observed in 3 patients. The level of TBil were in the normal range before and after transplantation in all patients. Transplanted tissue volume of islet was the main factor for significantly increased AST (P<0.05) in this study. It is also shown that the change in portal pressure is related to the AST elevation after islet transplantation.@*Conclusions@#The amount of transplanted islet tissue volume is related to the liver enzymes elevation after intraportal islet transplantation. Therefore, the improvement of the purity of islet to reduce the amount of transplanted tissue could be benefit to prevent the liver injury after islet transplantation. Meanwhile, the purified islets should be injected as slowly as possible to maintain a stable portal pressure.

ABSTRACT

Objective To examine the anticancer effect of a novel histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACi), JZ004, on colon cancer cells HCT-8 and HT-29, and to investigate the molecular mechanisms of proliferation inhibition and apoptosis induction of cancer cells treated by JZ 004.Methods Colon cancer cells were treated with a series of concentrations of JZ004 .MTT assay was used to detect the proliferation of cancer cells .The cell cycle distribution and apoptosis were deter-mined by flow cytometry .Rhodamine 123 and DCFH-DA were applied to detect the mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm) and reactive oxygen species ( ROS) production.The protein expressions of acetyl-histone H3, p21, cyclin-dependent kinase(CDK)4, Bcl-2, Mcl-1 and Bax were assayed by Western blotting .Results JZ004 was found to inhibit proliferation and induce apoptosis of colon cancer cells in a time-and dose-dependent manner , accompanied by a dose-dependent hyperacetylation of histone H3.JZ004 induced the cancer cell arrest in G 0/G1 phase by increasing the expres-sion level of p21 while CDK4 was downregulated .JZ004 also increased cellular ROS production and reduced ΔΨm by regu-lating the expressions of Bcl-2 family proteins .Conclusion As a novel HDACi , JZ004 effectively inhibits proliferation and increases ROS production to induce apoptosis of colon cancer cells .The results indicate that JZ004 is a potential compound to be developed as an anti-colon cancer agent for clinic application .
