Compositions and methods of producing mammalian cell populations that include a high proportion of pancreatic beta cells are described herein. Such cell populations are useful for treatment of diabetes. Also provided are materials and methods for the direct differentiation of stem cells, such as embryonic stem cells, into functional pancreatic beta cells. The disclosure provides the benefit of direct differentiation, which results in the production of functional pancreatic beta cells efficiently and at low cost.
本文描述了生产包括高比例胰腺β细胞的哺乳动物细胞群的组合物和方法。这种细胞群可用于治疗糖尿病。还提供了将胚胎干细胞等干细胞直接分化为功能性胰腺β细胞的材料和方法。本公开内容提供了直接分化的好处,可高效低成本地生产功能性胰腺β细胞。
