G-Protein coupled receptor signalling in pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiovascular cells: Implications for disease modelling [PDF]
Human pluripotent stem cell derivatives show promise as an in vitro platform to study a range of human cardiovascular diseases. A better understanding of the biology of stem cells and their cardiovascular derivatives will help to understand the strengths

Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells and Human Disease [PDF]
Two recent studies report the generation of induced pluripotent stem cells from patients presenting with a total of eleven different diseases (Park et al., 2008; Dimos et al., 2008). Future differentiation studies using these lines may offer insight on specific disease pathophysiology and aid the design of protective drug therapies.

Clinical potentials of human pluripotent stem cells [PDF]
Aging, injuries, and diseases can be considered as the result of malfunctioning or damaged cells. Regenerative medicine aims to restore tissue homeostasis by repairing or replacing cells, tissues, or damaged organs, by linking and combining different disciplines including engineering, technology, biology, and medicine.

Mouse pre‐implantation development involves a transition from totipotency to pluripotency. Integrating transcriptomics, epigenetic profiling, low‐input proteomics and functional assays, we show that eight‐cell embryos retain residual totipotency features, whereas cytoskeletal remodeling regulated by the ubiquitin‐proteasome system drives progression ...

A technique for removing tumourigenic pluripotent stem cells using rBC2LCN lectin
Introduction: Tumourigenesis attributed to residual undifferentiated cells in a graft is considered to be a significant issue in cell therapy using human pluripotent stem cells.

Energy metabolism in human pluripotent stem cells and their differentiated counterparts. [PDF]
Human pluripotent stem cells have the ability to generate all cell types present in the adult organism, therefore harboring great potential for the in vitro study of differentiation and for the development of cell-based therapies.

Expression pattern of the human ABC transporters in pluripotent embryonic stem cells and in their derivatives [PDF]
Background: ATP-binding Cassette (ABC) transporters have key roles in various physiological functions as well as providing chemical defense and stress tolerance in human tissues.

Derivation and characterization of retinal pigment epithelium from urine‐derived iPSCs
Age‐related macular degeneration causes vision loss via RPE dysfunction and loss. Traditional iPSC therapies rely on invasive biopsies, limiting scalability. Here, we utilize urine‐derived stem cells as an accessible source to generate u‐iPSCs, successfully differentiated into pigmented RPE. This “Urine‐to‐Retina” platform provides a promising path for

Two factor reprogramming of human neural stem cells into pluripotency.
BackgroundReprogramming human somatic cells to pluripotency represents a valuable resource for the development of in vitro based models for human disease and holds tremendous potential for deriving patient-specific pluripotent stem cells. Recently, mouse
