Co-encapsulation of bioengineered IGF-II-producing cells and pancreatic islets: effect on beta-cell survival

Abstract: Insulin-like growth factor-II (IGF-II) has been shown to promote pancreatic b-cell survival. We evaluated the effect of co-encapsulating islets and bioengineered IGF-II-producing cells on islet cell survival. IGF-II or green fast protein (GFP) genes were transferred into TM4 cells, and purified using a neomycin resistance gene, leading to pure cell cultures (TM4-IGF-II or TM4-GFP) with a stable overexpression of the transferred gene. Islets were co-encapsulated with TM4-IGF-II or TM4-GFP, or encapsulated alone… Show more

“…22 IGF-II coencapsulation with rodent pancreatic islet cells has also been demonstrated to improve beta cell survival. 23 It is possible to speculate that IGF-II and IGFBP-2 have favourable effects on HDL cholesterol mediated through an increase in insulin sensitivity.…”

“…Importantly, the cells displayed no loss of glucose responsiveness, a critical function that ordinarily disappears very early during apoptosis. Combining this cytokine-resistant selection strategy with a cell line overexpressing IGF2, such as that used by Jourdan et al (2011), could provide a novel approach for improving islet cell survival in the early post-transplant period.…”

“…IGF2 has been shown to promote pancreatic b-cell survival against apoptotic stimuli in vitro and in vivo (Rabinovitch et al 1982, Swenne et al 1987, Hogg et al 1993, Ilieva et al 1999, Robitaille et al 2003, Jourdan et al 2011 and induce proliferation in a growth-arrested mouse b-cell line (Milo-Landesman & Efrat 2002). IGF2 protects pre-diabetic NOD mouse islets from the cytotoxic actions of IL1b by the mechanisms that include a reduction in apoptosis (Hill et al 1999b).…”
