Description

Stem cells meant to repair diabetic tissue die quickly in the very sugar-rich environment they are sent to fix. Ejlal Abu-El-Rub and eleven co-authors asked what the sugar does to them, in a 2023 study. They grew human fat-derived mesenchymal stem cells for seven days in normal or high glucose.

The high-glucose cells lost viability and showed disturbed mitochondria, the cell's power plants, in their splitting and fusing balance. Signs of programmed cell death rose. Protein measurements traced a signaling chain, through PI3K, TSC1, and mTOR, that links nutrient sensing to the damage. The authors argue the transplant problem is partly a preparation problem: cells raised or shielded against glucose stress before delivery might survive long enough in diabetic tissue to do their repair work.
