A clinically applicable and scalable method to regenerate T-cells from iPSCs for off-the-shelf T-cell immunotherapy

Nature Communications, 2021
T-cell immunotherapies, such as CAR-T immunotherapy, are being developed against a wide variety of diseases. Here the authors report the feeder-free, scalable differentiation of human induced pluripotent cells (iPSCs) to T-cells with T-cell receptor ...

Metformin-induced ROS upregulation as amplified by apigenin causes profound anticancer activity while sparing normal cells

Scientific Reports, 2021
Metformin increased cellular ROS levels in AsPC-1 pancreatic cancer cells, with minimal effect in HDF, human primary dermal fibroblasts. Metformin reduced cellular ATP levels in HDF, but not in AsPC-1 cells.

Generation of Scaffoldless Hyaline Cartilaginous Tissue from Human iPSCs

Stem Cell Reports, 2015
Defects in articular cartilage ultimately result in loss of joint function. Repairing cartilage defects requires cell sources. We developed an approach to generate scaffoldless hyaline cartilage from human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs).
