干细胞研究与糖尿病治疗的研究进展

在一定条件下,干细胞可分化为肝细胞、胰岛素分泌细胞、血管内皮细胞等组织细胞类型;干细胞具备的增殖能力和分化潜能使其成为胰岛素分泌细胞的潜在来源。将一定数量的干细胞通过动脉导管注入胰腺组织中,干细胞在胰腺组织微环境的诱导下可分化增殖为胰岛样细胞,替代损伤的胰岛β细胞合成胰岛素等功能,起到治疗糖尿病的作用。本文就干细胞与糖尿病治疗的研究进展进行综述。

Research Advances in Stem Cells and Their Application in Treating Diabetes

Stem cells can differentiate into liver cells,insulin-secreting cells,vascular endothelial cells and other cells under certain conditions.They have become the potential source of insulin-secreting cells due to their proliferative capacity and differentiation potentials.When a certain number of stem cells are injected into the pancreatic tissue through vascular catheter,they can develop into islet-like cells after having been differentiated and proliferated in the pancreatic micro-environment,substituting th...
