Cellular Reprogramming [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2014
Nuclear reprogramming technology was first established more than 50 years ago. It can rejuvenate somatic cells by erasing the epigenetic memories and reconstructing a new pluripotent order. The recent discovery reviewed here that induced pluripotency can be achieved by a small set of transcription factors has opened up unprecedented opportunities in ...

Generation and characterization of CSSi016-A (9938) human pluripotent stem cell line carrying two biallelic variants in MTMR5/SBF1 gene resulting in a case of severe CMT4B3

open access: yesStem Cell Research, 2022
Charcot-Marie-Tooth type 4B3 (CMT4B3) is a rare subtype of hereditary neuropathy associated with variants in the MTMR5/SBF1 gene. Herein, we report the generation and characterization of a hiPSC line from a 12-year-old Italian girl with early onset ...

DNA methylation and cellular reprogramming [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Cell Biology, 2010
The recent discovery that a small number of defined factors are sufficient to reprogram somatic cells into pluripotent stem cells has significantly expanded our knowledge of the plasticity of the epigenome. In this review we discuss some aspects of cell fate plasticity and epigenetic alterations, with emphasis on DNA methylation during cellular ...

Gain-of-function oncogenic mutations in TP53 enhance defined factor-mediated cellular reprogramming [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Cancer is a disorder with various genetic and epigenetic alterations. Genetic alterations such as mutations, i.e., substitutions, amplifications, and deletions of nucleotide sequences, are largely irreversible, whereas epigenetic alterations can be ...

Anti-oncogenic effects of dutasteride, a dual 5-alpha reductase inhibitor and a drug for benign prostate hyperplasia, in bladder cancer

open access: yesJournal of Translational Medicine, 2023
Background The incidence of bladder cancer (BCa) is approximately four times higher in men than in women. To develop effective BCa treatments, there is an urgent need to understand the differences in the BCa control mechanisms based on gender. Our recent

Suv4-20h abrogation enhances telomere elongation during reprogramming and confers a higher tumorigenic potential to iPS cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Reprogramming of adult differentiated cells to induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS) cells has been achieved by over-expression of specific transcription factors.

Epigenetic impairments in development of parthenogenetic preimplantation mouse embryos

open access: yesThe Journal of Reproduction and Development, 2018
Parthenogenesis is an activation process of oocytes that occur without the participation of sperm. Evidence suggests that normal development of embryos requires proper expression of several imprinted genes inherited from both the paternal and maternal ...

Thermostable Human Basic Fibroblast Growth Factor (TS-bFGF) Engineered with a Disulfide Bond Demonstrates Superior Culture Outcomes in Human Pluripotent Stem Cell

open access: yesBiology, 2023
Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) can differentiate into various tissues and are an essential source of various disease models and therapeutics.

Isolation of female germline stem cells from porcine ovarian tissue and differentiation into oocyte-like cells

open access: yesThe Journal of Reproduction and Development, 2019
Historically, it had been widely accepted that the female mammalian ovary contained a limited number of oocytes that would reduce over time, without the possibility of replenishment. However, recent studies have suggested that female germline stem cells (
