近日,来自哥伦比亚大学的研究人员通过关闭特殊的单一基因,就可以将人类的胃肠道细胞转化为产胰岛素细胞,这就为开发新型药物来诱导人类机体胃肠道细胞转化为胰岛素生成细胞提供了一定的希望,相关研究刊登于国际杂志Nature Communications上。研究者Domenico Accili博士表示,人们常说开发将一种细胞转变成另外一种细胞的技术需要很长一段时间,目前我们可以通过对单一靶点的操作来得到完整功能的产胰岛素细胞,但我们并没有完全理解这其中所包含的奥秘;大约20年前研究人员就开始研究如何将1型糖尿病患者 Researchers from Columbia University recently turned human gastrointestinal cells into insulin-producing cells by switching off a single, single-gene that provides a new drug for the development of new drugs to induce the transformation of the human body’s gastrointestinal cells into insulin-producing cells Certain hope, related research published in the international magazine Nature Communications. Dr. Domenico Accili, a researcher, said it is often said that it takes a long time to develop a technique that turns one cell into another, and now we can get fully functional insulin-producing cells by manipulating a single target, but we Did not fully understand the mystery contained in this; about 20 years ago, researchers began to study how to type 1 diabetes
