Making Moves Toward Cell Therapy for Diabetes – The Scientist
Insulin administration is the current mainstay of type 1 diabetes therapy, but it requires frequent injections and monitoring to provide patients with glycemic control.1 As cell therapies gain traction in the clinic for different disease states, researchers aim to optimize this approach for future diabetes treatments.2 Scientists are looking into islet transplantation as a promising alternative to insulin injections, primarily by creating islet-like cells from human pluripotent stem cell (hPSC) cultures.3
Priye Iworima, a bioprocess engineer at the University of British Columbia, developed a stem cell differentiation protocol for manufacturing insulin-producing cell therapies.
Priye Iworima and Tim Kieffer
Differentiating stem cells into high-quality insulin-producing cells on a large scale for therapeutic manufacturing is a common bottleneck in translational research. In a study published in Stem Cell Research & Therapy, a team of diabetes researchers led by Timothy Kieffer at the University of British Columbia investigated ways to improve scalable manufacturing and demonstrated key parameters for monitoring quality during cell therapy production.4 Their work provides insights for the larger-scale production of hPSC-derived pancreatic cells and suggests ways to standardize the manufacturing process.
The researchers applied a quality-by-design approach, which interrogates the experimental process as part of drug development rather than only testing the properties of the final product. They used this approach to investigate and improve insulin-producing cell manufacturing. In this instance, the process is the product as well, because what we are doing and how we are doing it could impact the quality of the cells that are being made, explained Priye Iworima, a bioprocess engineer from Kieffers laboratory who spearheaded this work.

Iworima and her colleagues developed and optimized a seven-step cell manufacturing process that differentiates hPSC into insulin-producing islet-like clusters. At each differentiation step, they characterized bioprocess parameters such as cell proliferation, glucose consumption and lactate production rates, and cell fate biomarkers. The researchers enhanced cell yield by adjusting the cell culture process, and they revealed a gradual metabolic shift from glycolysis to oxidative phosphorylation that scientists can monitor as a quality control metric during scalable manufacturing.
Researchers grew functional islet-like clusters in miniature bioreactors.

This paper is interesting in that it fills in a gap, said stem cell biologist Joe Zhou from Weill Cornell Medicine, who investigates organoid-derived cell replacement therapies for diabetes and who was not involved in this study. In terms of how you scale production or do quality control, how do you industrialize a cell therapy from the lab toward the clinic? We see very few publications like that in this field.
Iworima believes that her findings will also help researchers evaluate whether intermediate cell products are useful for certain subsets of patients, which could shorten and simplify the manufacturing process. Eventually, we will have different cell products that may be best suited to the individual, whether it is the more terminally differentiated islet-like cluster, or whether it is the pancreatic progenitor, Iworima said.
Previous transplant studies with diabetic rodent models suggested that progenitor cells may be adequate for mature beta cell function postimplantation. The quality control parameters highlighted along the step-by-step process in this study could facilitate future translational applications for progenitor cells and fully differentiated cells alike.
If scientists can overcome in vitro manufacturing barriers such as scale and quality control limitations, cell culture methods for growing insulin-producing islet mimics may help diabetes cell replacement therapies reach patients. The journey of a laboratory protocol from the bench to bedsidepeople always talk about that. But most of the papers are about the bench, Zhou said. It will be good to have this knowledge out there so people do not have to reinvent the wheel. It will be very helpful.

Toddler Beats Childhood Leukemia After Car T-Cell Therapy – City of Hope
Can you do Spiderman? the visitor asks.
Like a shot, 6-year-old Julian Juju Castaneda Figueroa strikes the classic pose, crouched low, arm extended, head cocked sideways with eyes intensely focused forward. Superhero stuff.
And you know, its not too much of a stretch to give this cuddly, fidgety, always-in-motion first-grader the superhero label. Let him tell you why.
I want to be the fastest runner in my class, he says. Sometimes I get tired. But Im still faster than all the kindergarten kids. Know why? Because I have 3,000 boosters inside me!
Out of the mouths of babes.
He doesnt really remember what happened to him. If theres a negative memory, its all those needle biopsies, checking his bone marrow. I dont like the pokes, he says.
Mom, on the other hand, does remember. It is difficult for Nancy Figueroa to retell, without a few tears, how she and the little boy shes raising alone in Compton, California, endured a sudden, life-threatening diagnosis, chemotherapy that didnt work, CAR T immunotherapy that did, plus one stem cell transplant, then another. All before Jujus fourth birthday.
Figueroa said her son was a perfectly normal, healthy baby with no significant problems until age 2. Thats when everything changed, seemingly overnight, on May 9, 2019.
He woke up early, like 4 a.m., she recalled. He was crying and complaining about pain in his knee. He was walking with a limp.
She rushed Juju to the emergency room. X-rays and an ultrasound were normal. His bloodwork was not.
The doctor sits down next to me, said Figueroa, and says, Your son has leukemia.
I didnt get it at first. Cancer? What? I didnt understand. Then the doctor walks away and it hits me. I started crying. I called my mother, and shes crying. Then I called Jujus father, and he starts to cry.
Jujus diagnosis was acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), the most common childhood cancer, with some 2,500 new cases each year. ALL in children is highly treatable, with up to a 90% survival rate. However, some cases like Jujus are classified as high risk for a number of reasons, including the patients age and their white blood cell count at the time of diagnosis.
Most children with ALL respond well to chemotherapy. High-risk patients can also be cured, but they require more aggressive chemotherapy. Jujus cancer stubbornly resisted the drugs. After switching his treatments four times without success, doctors referred Juju and his mom to City of Hope, where tens of thousands of patients have received lifesaving bone marrow and stem cell transplants.
Their new doctor tried to be reassuring as Figueroa and her son sat in the examination room.
Nothing really calms them, said Nicole A. Karras, M.D., a pediatric hematologist-oncologist and associate clinical professor at City of Hope Childrens Cancer Center. You just explain, This is what we can do. The fact is, in the last 10 years, were developed so many new therapies. And every year we learn so much more from kids like Julian.
To treat Juju, Karras recommended transplanting stem cells derived from stored umbilical cord blood obtained from the national cord blood bank. This method, in use since 1988, can sometimes be preferable to bone marrow transplants. A precise match is not necessary. Cord blood stem cells generally havent been exposed to infections yet, which means they havent developed immune reactions, so they are less likely to trigger graft-versus-host disease.
There are drawbacks, though. Cord blood units contain a lower volume of stem cells and they engraft more slowly than bone marrow cells, leaving the patient vulnerable to infection for a longer period of time.
In Jujus case, no family member could provide an exact match, but a search turned up cord blood from a nonrelative that matched 99%. In certain circumstances, cord blood can be better than haplo a partial bone marrow match from a relative Karras said.
With any transplant, the long preparation process can be daunting, even frightening. Juju needed intense chemotherapy and radiation to destroy his diseased bone marrow before the transplant could happen. The process was rough on mother and son.
I didnt know what was going on, said Figueroa. I couldnt help him, and it was so hard to see him there, going through those changes. Especially the radiation. It burned his gums, his lips, his skin. He couldnt eat. He was crying. It made me nervous and scared.
But I just wanted him to be healthy. I felt, whatever makes him better, do it.
The cord blood transplant itself, which took place in late 2019, went so smoothly, said Figueroa, that she remembers thinking, Thats it? And for a while, Juju did get better, which made for a happy Thanksgiving and Christmas season. But by June 2020, there were signs that the cancer had returned.
He developed bruises on his back, said Figueroa, and he didnt want to eat much. They went for tests, but I already knew.
I was so angry and upset, she continued, tears flowing now. He was just 3 . She prayed, but I didnt want to believe anymore.
But Karras had a plan. She would use revolutionary CAR T cell therapy to once again bring Juju into remission, clearing the way for a second transplant, if necessary.
CAR T cell treatment works by re-engineering a patients own immune cells to seek out and destroy cancer. City of Hope researchers have led the way in CAR T cell development.
Considered an experimental process just a few years ago, CAR T cell therapy is now the standard of care for a variety of cancers, including relapsed ALL. There are six commercially available CAR T products including one Kymriah specifically for children.
Jujus CAR T treatment did what it was supposed to do. He went into remission, with minimal side effects. Karras performed another bone marrow biopsy to confirm all the cancer was gone. The test showed no active cancer cells, but also indicated a possibility that the malignancy could return. The CAR T treatment alone would not be enough. But a second transplant might provide a cure.
This time, Karras determined that Jujus father would be the best available donor. Figueroa admits this was complicated the couple is no longer together but she also insisted it wasnt hard to ask him and he did come through, agreeing to donate.
This was a fraught time for Juju and his mom. The failure of the first transplant and the need to go through the process all over again took an emotional toll. Karras and many others at City of Hope did their best to help.
Juju got really great care, and it was a team effort, said Karras. Before the second transplant, he and his mom were really traumatized and fearful. We gave them a lot of help so they could get better adjusted.
The effort was not lost on Mom.
Everyone at City of Hope is amazing, Figueroa said. Dr. Karras did everything that had to be done. Shes one of the greatest doctors Ive ever met, and I trust her completely.
The second transplant happened in early 2021. Juju endured a series of difficulties in the ensuing weeks: His liver and kidneys were not functioning properly. It was necessary to place him in intensive care until the transplanted cells began to work and his systems returned to normal.
After that, Juju kept getting better and better! said Mom, smiling. And now, more than two years later, Hes so good, I sometimes forget how sick he was. I have to look at the pictures to remind myself.
And how does Juju, with all those CAR T and stem cell boosters purring away inside him, feel about the folks who put them there?
City of Hope is great, he says.
Mom agrees, and adds one bit of advice to others facing similar challenges:
Never lose hope.

The Future of Dog Health: Scientists Develop Unprecedented Painless Method To Reprogram Canine Stem Cells – SciTechDaily
Researchers at Osaka Metropolitan University have innovatively reprogrammed canine stem cells from urine to create induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) without feeder cells. This breakthrough in non-invasive, pain-free stem cell generation paves the way for new advancements in veterinary regenerative medicine and genetic disease research, offering hope for treating previously incurable diseases in dogs.

Dog owners may need to learn to appreciate their best friends urine. Researchers at Osaka Metropolitan University have developed a new method thats efficient, non-invasive, and painless for reprogramming stem cells from dogs urine. This breakthrough paves the way for advancements in veterinary regenerative treatments for our four-legged companions.
Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) have been widely employed in studies on human generative medicine. With the growing importance of advanced medical care for dogs and cats, there is an expectation that new therapies utilizing iPSCs will be developed for these companion animals, just as they have been for humans.
Unfortunately, canine somatic cells exhibit lower reprogramming efficiency compared to those of humans, limiting the types of canine cells available for generating iPSCs. IPSC induction often involves using feeder cells from a different species. However, considering the associated risks, minimizing xenogeneic components is often advisable, signifying the need to improve the efficiency of reprogramming various types of canine cells in dogs without using feeder cells.
A research team led by Professor Shingo Hatoya and Dr. Masaya Tsukamoto from the Graduate School of Veterinary Science at Osaka Metropolitan University has identified six reprogramming genes that can boost canine iPSC generation by about 120 times compared to conventional methods using fibroblasts. The iPSCs were created from urine-derived cells using a non-invasive, straightforward, and painless method.
Additionally, the researchers succeeded in generating canine iPSCs without feeder cells, a feat that had been impossible until now. The team aims to disseminate their findings in the global research community, contributing to advances in regenerative medicine and genetic disease research in veterinary medicine.
As a veterinarian, I have examined and treated many animals, explained Professor Hatoya. However, there are still many diseases that either cannot be cured or have not been fully understood. In the future, I am committed to continuing my research on differentiating canine iPSCs into various types of cells and applying them to treat sick dogs, hopefully bringing joy to many animals and their owners.

FDA Investigating Reports of T-Cell Malignancies Following CAR T … – AJMC.com Managed Markets Network
The FDA announced today it would investigate the risk of T-cell malignancy associated with chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy, the customized treatments that have changed revolutionized care for patients with lymphoma and multiple myeloma since the first one was approved in 2017.
Although the overall benefits of these products continue to outweigh their potential risks for their approved uses, FDA is investigating the identified risk of T cell malignancy with serious outcomes, including hospitalization and death, and is evaluating the need for regulatory action, the agency said in a press release.
FDAs decision is the result of reports received from clinical trials and/or data sources that track postmarketing adverse events, according to the statement.
The announcement applies to all currently approved therapies, both BCMA-directed and CD19-directed genetically modified autologous CAR T-cell treatments. The agencys press release said, T-cell malignancies have occurred in patients treated with several products in the class, but it did not specify which ones. Approved treatments are as follows
In its statement, regulators stated that all gene therapy products carry the potential risk of causing secondary malignancies, which is labeled as a class warning in approvals for all products. Manufacturers are required to conduct 15-year long term follow-up observational safety studies as a result. However, early reports in STAT quoted experts who said they had not yet seen data showing such a risk.
FDA advised that patients and clinical trial participants currently undergoing treatment with CAR T-cell therapies should be monitored lifelong for new malignancies. Should one occur, the statement said, the manufacturer should report the event and obtain a patient sample to test for the presence of the CAR transgene.
The move comes 11 days before the American Society of Hematology, the worlds premier gathering of experts who treat cancers treated with CAR T-cell therapy, is set to start in San Diego, California.
