MicroRNAs can effectively induce formation of insulin-producing cells from mesenchymal stem cells
10 Apr 2017
Abstract excerpt
MicroRNAs regulate insulin secretion, pancreatic development and beta cell differentiation. However, the function of microRNAs in the formation of insulin-producing cells (IPCs) from adult stem cells is poorly understood. We examine the microRNA expression profile in nestin-positive umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells (N-UCMSCs) and nestin-positive pancreatic mesenchymal stem cells using a deep...
