Description

Michiko Horiguchi and co-authors check whether the daily body clock survives in stem cells taken from a patient with type 2 diabetes. Their 2024 study transplants fat-derived stem cells from a healthy donor and from a diabetic patient, then tracks four clock genes across the day. Stem cell therapy is a hopeful route for diabetes, but a broken clock in the graft could disturb the tissue it joins.

The clock genes rose and fell in near-identical rhythm in both cell groups, in step with the host body. Gene-wide reads then sorted which other genes differed between the diabetic and healthy cells. The reassuring clock result supports the use of a patient's own cells in therapy.
