Successful Preclinical Islet Transplantation in the Subcutaneous Space for Type 1 Diabetes

ABSTRACT: The intrahepatic milieu is inhospitable to intraportal islet allografts, limiting their applicability to ameliorate Type 1 Diabetes (T1D). Islet viability in the subcutaneous space represents an unfulfilled paradigm that is crucial to ensure widespread adoption and safety of clinical islet transplantation. Herein we report that human islets transplanted subcutaneously uniformly promote long-term euglycemia when admixed with a device-free Islet Viability Matrix (IVM), through a previously unknown anti-apoptotic mechanism.

Analysis of graft-infiltrating CD8+ T cell profile after CD3 antibody therapy

Project description:We performed a global gene expression analysis comparing intragraft tolerant CD8+ T cells from CD3 antibody-treated mice showing permanent islet graft survival to intra-graft effector CD8+ T cells isolated from untreated mice showing acute rejection of islet allografts. The objective was to emphasize the anergic profile of CD8+ T cells residing within the pancreatic islet allograft of mice rendered tolerant following CD3 antibody therapy.

Successful transplantation of islets into inguinal subcutaneous white adipose tissue

Project description:Islet transplantation is an attractive treatment for patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, and currently the liver is the favored transplantation site. However, an alternative site is desirable because of the low efficiency of hepatic transplantation, requiring 2-3 donors for a single recipient, and because the transplanted islets cannot be accessed or retrieved. Here we describe a novel site for islet transplantation, the inguinal subcutaneous white adipose tissue. In this site, transplanted islets are engrafted as clusters and function to reverse diabetes in mice. Importantly, transplanted islets can be visualized by CT and are easily retrievable, and allograft rejection is preventable by blockade of co-stimulatory signals. Of much interest, the efficiency of islet transplantation is superior to the liver, with increased mass of transplanted β cells. Furthermore, transplanted human islets function to reverse diabetes in immunodeficient mice. Thus, this adipose tissue site may be ideal for clinical islet transplantation.

The Atlas of Immune Infiltrates in Islet Cell Allo-transplantation

Project description:Islet transplantation to treat the late stage of T1DM patients has made some inspiring success recently in clinical trials. However, most of patients underwent a decline of islet cell graft in one to three years due to chronic immune rejection. Although the mechanisms of immune cells including macrophages, dendritic cells (DCs), neutrophils, natural killer cells (NKs), B cells, T cells that mediate immune rejection have been investigated, the overall characteristics of immune infiltrates in islet allografts remain unclear. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) has provided us with new opportunities to study the molecular characteristics of the immune microenvironment in islet transplants. In the present study, we used scRNA-seq to comprehensively analyze the immune heterogeneity in islet graft, and compared the variances regarding to transcriptomal profiling and immune atlas between syngeneic islet transplantation and allograft.

RNA-seq analysis for characterization of the TCR repertoire

Project description:Immune tolerance to allografts has been pursued for decades as an important goal in transplantation. Administration of apoptotic donor splenocytes effectively induces antigen-specific tolerance to allografts in murine studies. Here we show that two peritransplant infusions of apoptotic donor leukocytes under short-term immunotherapy with antagonistic anti-CD40 antibody 2C10R4, rapamycin, soluble tumor necrosis factor receptor and anti-interleukin 6 receptor antibody induce long-term (≥1 year) tolerance to islet allografts in 5 of 5 nonsensitized, MHC class I-disparate, and 1 MHC class II DRB allele-matched rhesus macaques. Tolerance in our preclinical model is associated with a regulatory network, involving antigen-specific Tr1 cells exhibiting a distinct transcriptome and indirect specificity for matched MHC class II and mismatched class I peptides. Apoptotic donor leukocyte infusions warrant continued investigation as a cellular, nonchimeric and translatable method for inducing antigen- specific tolerance in transplantation.

Extensive effects of in vitro oocyte maturation on rhesus monkey cumulus cell transcriptome

Project description:The elaboration of a quality oocyte is integrally linked to the correct developmental progression of cumulus cell phenotype. In humans and non-human primates, oocyte quality is diminished with in vitro maturation. To determine the changes in gene expression in rhesus monkey cumulus cells (CC) that occur during the final day prior to oocyte maturation and how these changes differ between in vitro and in vivo maturation (IVM and VVM), we completed a detailed comparison of transcriptomes using the Affymetrix gene array. We observe a large number of genes differing in expression when comparing IVM-CC and VVM-CC directly, but a much larger number of differences comparing the transitions from the pre-oocyte maturation to post- IVM and post-VVM state. We observe a truncation or delay in the normal pattern of gene regulation, but also remarkable compensatory changes in gene expression during IVM. Among the genes affected in cumulus cells by IVM are those that contribute to productive cell-cell interactions between cumulus cell and oocyte and between cumulus cells. Numerous genes involved in lipid metabolism are incorrectly regulated during IVM, and the synthesis of sex hormones appears not suppressed during IVM. We identify a panel of 24 marker genes, the expression of which should provide the foundation for understanding how IVM can be improved, for monitoring IVM conditions, and for diagnosing oocyte quality. We compared transcriptomes of cumulus cells isolated from in vitro matured cumulus-oocyte complexes COCs (IVM-CC) and from in vivo matured COCs (VVM-CC) to identify potential cumulus cell markers of oocyte quality. The global gene expression profile of pre-maturation cumulus cells (PM-CC) was used to developmental transitions between IVM and VVM.
