Abstract
The global population of individuals afflicted with diabetes mellitus has been increasing year by year, and this disease poses a serious threat to human health as well as the economies worldwide. Pancreatic or islet transplantations provide one of the most effective and long-term therapies available to treat diabetes, but the scarcity and quality of pancreatic islets limit their use in treatments. Here, we report the development of a one-step, monolayer culture, and chemical-based protocol that efficiently mediates the differentiation of human adipose-derived stem cells (hADSCs) into insulin-producing cells (IPCs). Our data indicate that hADSCs in monolayer culture that are allowed to differentiate into IPCs are superior to those in suspension cultures with respect to insulin secretion capacity (213-fold increase), cell viability (93.5 ± 3.27% vs. 41.67 ± 13.17%), and response to glucose stimulation. Moreover, the expression of genes associated with pancreatic lineage specification, such as PDX1, ISL1, and INS (encoding insulin), were expressed at significantly higher levels during our differentiation protocol (6-fold for PDX1 and ISL1, 11.5-fold for INS). Importantly, in vivo studies demonstrated that transplantation with IPCs significantly mitigated hyperglycemia in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. Our results indicate that this one-step, rapid protocol increases the efficiency of IPC generation and that the chemical-based approach for IPC induction may reduce safety concerns associated with the use of IPCs for clinical applications, thereby providing a safe and effective cell-based treatment for diabetes.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are an attractive option for cell therapy for type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM). These cells can be obtained from many sources, but bone marrow and adipose tissue are the most studied. MSCs have distinct advantages since they are nonteratogenic, nonimmunogenic and have immunomodulatory functions. Insulin-producing cells (IPCs) can be generated from MSCs by gene transfection, gene editing or directed differentiation. For directed differentiation, MSCs are usually cultured in a glucose-rich medium with various growth and activation factors. The resulting IPCs can control chemically-induced diabetes in immune-deficient mice. These findings are comparable to those obtained from pluripotent cells. PD-L1 and PD-L2 expression by MSCs is upregulated under inflammatory conditions. Immunomodulation occurs due to the interaction between these ligands and PD-1 receptors on T lymphocytes. If this function is maintained after differentiation, life-long immunosuppression or encapsulation could be avoided. In the clinical setting, two sites can be used for transplantation of IPCs: the subcutaneous tissue and the omentum. A 2-stage procedure is required for the former and a laparoscopic procedure for the latter. For either site, cells should be transplanted within a scaffold, preferably one from fibrin. Several questions remain unanswered. Will the transplanted cells be affected by the antibodies involved in the pathogenesis of type 1 DM? What is the functional longevity of these cells following their transplantation? These issues have to be addressed before clinical translation is attempted. Graphical Abstract Bone marrow MSCs are isolated from the long bone of SD rats. Then they are expanded and through directed differentiation insulin-producing cells are formed. The differentiated cells are loaded onto a collagen scaffold. If one-stage transplantation is planned, a drug delivery system must be incorporated to ensure immediate oxygenation, promote vascularization and provide some growth factors. Some mechanisms involved in the immunomodulatory function of MSCs. These are implemented either by cell to cell contact or by the release of soluble factors. Collectively, these pathways results in an increase in T-regulatory cells.

Abstract
Background Chronic kidney disease is a severe threat to human health with no ideal treatment strategy. Mature mammalian kidneys have a fixed number of nephrons, and regeneration is difficult once they are damaged. For this reason, developing an efficient approach to achieve kidney regeneration is necessary. The technology of the combination of decellularized kidney scaffolds with stem cells has emerged as a new strategy; however, in previous studies, the differentiation of stem cells in decellularized scaffolds was insufficient for functional kidney regeneration, and many problems remain. Methods We used 0.5% sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) to produce rat kidney decellularized scaffolds, and induce adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) into intermediate mesoderm by adding Wnt agonist CHIR99021 and FGF9 in vitro. The characteristics of decellularized scaffolds and intermediate mesoderm induced from adipose-derived stem cells were identified. The scaffolds were recellularized with ADSCs and intermediate mesoderm cells through the renal artery and ureter. After cocultured for 10 days, cells adhesion and differentiation was evaluated. Results Intermediate mesoderm cells were successfully induced from ADSCs and identified by immunofluorescence and Western blotting assays (OSR1 + , PAX2 +). Immunofluorescence showed that intermediate mesoderm cells differentiated into tubular-like (E-CAD + , GATA3 +) and podocyte-like (WT1 +) cells with higher differentiation efficiency than ADSCs in the decellularized scaffolds. Comparatively, this phenomenon was not observed in induced intermediate mesoderm cells cultured in vitro. Conclusion In this study, we demonstrated that intermediate mesoderm cells could be induced from ADSCs and that they could differentiate well after cocultured with decellularized scaffolds.

Abstract
Type 1 diabetes involves the immunologically mediated destruction of insulin‑producing cells (IPCs) in the pancreatic islet. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have the ability to differentiate into IPCs and have become the most promising means for diabetes therapy. The present study demonstrated that human adipose‑derived stem cells (hADSCs) and human amniotic MSCs (hAMSCs) are able to differentiate into functional IPCs by knocking down neuronal restrictive silencing factor (NRSF) and Sonic hedgehog (SHH). In the current study, PEI@Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs) were used to deliver NRSF small interfering (si)RNA and SHH siRNA to hADSCs and hAMSCs. Following infection with PEI@Fe3O4 NPs containing NRSF siRNA and SHH siRNA, the MSCs were induced to differentiate into IPCs. Four specific genes for islet cells were expressed in the differentiated cells. These cells also produced and released insulin in a glucose‑responsive manner. These findings indicated that hADSCs and hAMSCs may be induced to differentiate into IPCs via PEI@Fe3O4 NP‑mediated NRSF and SHH silencing.
