SUMMARY
The generation of insulin-producing pancreatic b
cells from stem cells in vitro would provide an un-precedented
cell source for drug discovery and cell
transplantation therapy in diabetes. However, insu-lin-
producing cells previously generated from human
pluripotent stem cells (hPSC) lack many functional
characteristics of bona fide b cells. Here, we report
a scalable differentiation protocol that can generate
hundreds of millions of glucose-responsive b cells
from hPSC in vitro. These stem-cell-derived b cells
(SC-b) express markers found in mature b cells, flux
Ca2+ in response to glucose, package insulin into
secretory granules, and secrete quantities of insulin

SUMMARY
The generation of insulin-producing pancreatic b
cells from stem cells in vitro would provide an un-precedented
cell source for drug discovery and cell
transplantation therapy in diabetes. However, insu-lin-
producing cells previously generated from human
pluripotent stem cells (hPSC) lack many functional
characteristics of bona fide b cells. Here, we report
a scalable differentiation protocol that can generate
hundreds of millions of glucose-responsive b cells
from hPSC in vitro. These stem-cell-derived b cells
(SC-b) express markers found in mature b cells, flux
Ca2+ in response to glucose, package insulin into
secretory granules, and secrete quantities of insulin
comparable to adult b cells in response to multiple
sequential glucose challenges in vitro. Furthermore,
these cells secrete human insulin into the serum of
mice shortly after transplantation in a glucose-regu-lated
manner, and transplantation of these cells ame-liorates
hyperglycemia in diabetic mice.

INTRODUCTION
The discovery of human pluripotent stem cells (hPSC) opened
the possibility of generating replacement cells and tissues
in the laboratory that could be used for disease treatment and
drug screening. Recent research has moved the stem cell field
closer to that goal through development of strategies to generate
cells that would otherwise be difficult to obtain, like neurons or
cardiomyocytes (Kriks et al., 2011; Shiba et al., 2012; Son
et al., 2011). These cells have also been transplanted into animal
models, in some cases with a beneficial effect like suppression of
arrhythmias with stem-cell-derived cardiomyocytes (Shiba et al.,
2012), restoration of locomotion after spinal injury with oligoden-drocyte
progenitors (Keirstead et al., 2005), or improved vision
after transplantation of retinal epithelial cells into rodent models
of blindness (Lu et al., 2009).
One of the rapidly growing diseases that may be treatable by
stem-cell-derived tissues is diabetes, affecting >300 million peo-ple
worldwide, according to the International Diabetes Federa-tion.
and the mode of delivery is understood: transplantation to a
vascularized location within the body with immunoprotection.
Pharmaceutical screening to identify new drugs that improve b
cell function, survival, or proliferation is also hindered by limited
supplies of islets and high variability due to differential causes
of death, donor genetic background, and other factors in their
isolation. A consistent, uniform supply of stem-cell-derived b cells
would provide a unique and valuable drug discovery platform for
diabetes. Additionally, genetically diverse stem-cell-derived b
cells could be used for disease modeling in vitro or in vivo.
Studies on pancreatic development in model organisms
(Gamer and Wright, 1995; Henry and Melton, 1998; Ninomiya
et al., 1999; Apelqvist et al., 1999; Kim et al., 2000; Hebrok
et al., 2000; Murtaugh et al., 2003) identified genes and signals
important for the pancreatic lineage, and these have been effec-tively
used to form cells in the b cell lineage in vitro from hPSC.
Definitive endoderm and subsequent pancreatic progenitors
can now be differentiated with high efficiencies (Kroon et al.,
2008; DâAmour et al., 2005, 2006; Rezania et al., 2012). These
cells can differentiate into functional b cells within 3â4 months
following transplantation into rodents (Kroon et al., 2008; Rezania
et al., 2012), indicating that some cells in the preparation contain
the developmental potential to develop into b cells if provided
enough time and appropriate cues. Unfortunately, the months-long
process the cells undergo in vivo is not understood, and it
is unclear whether this process of in vivo differentiation would
also occur in human patients. Attempts to date at generating
insulin-producing (INS+) cells from human pancreatic progeni-tors
in vitro have generated cells with immature or abnormal
phenotypes. These cells either fail to perform glucose-stimulated
