Core Tip	It is well known that islet transplantation can decrease the morbidity related to diabetes mellitus (DM) after total pancreatectomy (TP); however, islet shortage limits its application. To solve the islet shortage problem, we tried to induce mesenchymal stem cells isolated from human Wharton’s jelly to differentiate into insulin-producing cells (IPCs) in this study. To imitate the pathophysiological status of diabetic patients after TP, we used Sprague-Dawley rats after 90% pancreatectomy as a model of type 1 DM. We for the first time tested the possible curative effects of transplanting IPCs differentiated from umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells into the model rats.
