Description

组合物及其使用方法 背景技术
所有的生物都会发生伴随细胞和组织功能活力下降的衰老。衰老的特征在于分子、细胞、组织和生物体水平上逐渐发生的功能丧失。主要特征包括端粒磨损、遗传不稳定、表观遗传和转录改变以及错误蛋白质的积累等问题。在包括脊椎动物在内的许多动物中,重要器官的再生和修复能力随着衰老和疾病的发生急剧下降。与成人的体细胞不同,按时间顺序更接近受精时期的个体细胞(如胚胎和婴儿的细胞)显示出细胞的年轻状态,并具有更大的抵抗损伤和压力的能力,能够治愈、更新和再生器官和组织。因此,长期以来一直寻求用于使细胞恢复活力从而将它们从衰老的成熟状态恢复到更年轻,更有活力的生命状态的组合物和方法,用以治疗某些损伤和疾病,以及总体逆转和预防整个生物体的衰老。
2006年,日本京都大学山中伸弥教授开发的诱导多能干细胞(iPSC)技术,能够逆转细胞的端粒磨损和氧化应激。这项具有划时代意义的细胞技术,简而言之是通过4个转录因子(Oct4、Sox2、Klf4和c-Myc)重编程细胞,利用病毒载体将四个转录因子(Oct4,Sox2,Klf4和c-Myc)的组合转入分化的体细胞中,使其重编程而得到类似胚胎干细胞的一种细胞类型。从而使体细胞退化到类似胚胎干细胞的状态。这种细胞类似人类的胚胎干细胞,具有超强的分化能力,可以分化出人的血细胞,骨细胞,神经细胞等,进而培养出人的脏器,骨,眼角膜,胰腺等。在疾病模拟、药物筛选和细胞治疗中有着巨大的应用前景。
2016年之后,科学家发现4个转录因子(Oct4、Sox2、Klf4和c-My)也能够使得衰老细胞重编程为年轻细胞。然而,现有可实现抗衰老或恢复细胞活力的重编程因子组合比较局限,安全性有待进一步提高。因此,本领域亟需更多、更安全的使受试者细胞、组织或器官恢复活力的重编程因子。
