A population of small stem cells with diameters of up to 5 μm resembling very small embryonic-like stem cells (VSELs) were sorted from human embryonic stem cell (hESC) cultures using magnetic-activated cell sorting (MACS) based on the expression of ...

Generation and characterization of erythroid cells from human embryonic stem cells and induced pluripotent stem cells : an overview [PDF]
Because of the imbalance in the supply and demand of red blood cells (RBCs), especially for alloimmunized patients or patients with rare blood phenotypes, extensive research has been done to generate therapeutic quantities of mature RBCs from ...

Notch promotes neural lineage entry by pluripotent embryonic stem cells [PDF]
A central challenge in embryonic stem (ES) cell biology is to understand how to impose direction on primary lineage commitment. In basal culture conditions, the majority of ES cells convert asynchronously into neural cells.

GENERATION OF MOUSE INDUCED PLURIPOTENT STEM CELLS BY PROTEIN TRANSDUCTION. [PDF]
Somatic cell reprogramming has generated enormous interest after the first report by Yamanaka and his coworkers in 2006 on the generation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from mouse fibroblasts. Here we report the generation of stable iPSCs from

Embryonic cortical neural stem cells migrate ventrally and persist as postnatal striatal stem cells [PDF]
Embryonic cortical neural stem cells apparently have a transient existence, as they do not persist in the adult cortex. We sought to determine the fate of embryonic cortical stem cells by following Emx1(IREScre); LacZ/EGFP double-transgenic murine cells ...

Designing an optimal cryopreservation protocol for human embryonic stem cells: A systematic approach [PDF]
Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) are derived from the inner cell mass of the human blastocyst. They are pluripotent cells which can differentiate into a wide range of cell types, making them potentially useful for the treatment of diseases such as ...

Computational analysis of expression of human embryonic stem cell-associated signatures in tumors
Background The cancer stem cell model has been proposed based on the linkage between human embryonic stem cells and human cancer cells. However, the evidences supporting the cancer stem cell model remain to be collected.

Generation of GADD45A gene knockout human embryonic stem cell line using CRISPR/Cas9
GADD45A is a DNA damage and stressful growth arrest inducible protein, also it is shown to a be tumor suppressor gene and a chromatin relaxer associated with opening chromatin during the somatic reprogramming.

Identification and characterization of small-molecule ligands that maintain pluripotency of human embryonic stem cells [PDF]
hESCs (human embryonic stem cells) offer great potential for pharmaceutical research and development and, potentially, for therapeutic use. However, improvements in cell culture are urgently required to allow the scalable production of large numbers of ...
