Abstrakt: Type 1 diabetes mellitus occurs when beta cell mass is reduced to less than 20% of the normal level due to immune system destruction of beta cell resulting in an inability to secrete enough insulin. The prevalence of diabetes is expanding according to the American Diabetes Association and the World Health Organization (WHO), foretold to exceed 350 million by 2030. The current treatment does not cure many of the serious complications associated with the disease such as neuropathy, nephropathy, dyslipidemia, retinopathy and cardiovascular disease. Whole pancreas or isolated pancreatic islet transplantation as an alternative therapy can prevent or reduce some of the complications of diabetes. However, the shortage of matched organ or islets cells donor and alloimmune responses limit this therapeutic strategy. Recently, several reports have raised extremely promising results to use different sources of stem cells to differentiate insulin-producing cells and focus on the expansion of these alternative sources. Stem cells, due to their potential for multiple differentiation and self-renewal can differentiate into all cell types, including insulin-producing cells (IPCs). Generation of new beta cells can be achieved from various stem cell sources, including embryonic stem cells (ESCs), adult stem cells, such as mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). Thus, this chapter discusses on the assistance of cellular reprogramming of various stem cells as candidates for the generation of IPCs using transcription factors/miRNA, cytokines/small molecules and tissue engineering.
