HUMAN ADIPOSE DERIVED INSULNIN MAKING MESENCHYMAL STEM CELLS FOR TREATING DIABETES MELLITUS

摘要

The invention provides a novel therapeutic composition comprising of insulin producing mesenchymal stem cells obtained from human adipose tissue along with Hematopoietic stem cells for the treatment of diabetic patients especially insulinopenic patients. The invention also describes a simple and efficient process for the isolation, proliferation and differentiation of insulin producing mesenchymall stem cells from human adipose tissue. Unfiltered extract of adipose tissue is used in the process with a medium totally free from xenogenic material; the serial passages of the cells are avoided in the process.
