Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells
Induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells are a recent development which has brought a promise of great therapeutic values. The previous technique of somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) has been ineffective in humans. Recent discoveries show that human fibroblasts can be reprogrammed by a transient over expression of a small number of genes; they can ...

Induced pluripotent stem cells [PDF]
Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS) result from a reprogramming of somatic cells via transduction with viral vectors expressing the Oct4, Sox2, c-Myc, Klf4, Nanog, and Lin28 genes, which are essential for the establishment and maintenance of the pluripotent state. In properties, iPS are almost fully similar to embryonic stem cells (ESC).

Pluripotency of induced pluripotent stem cells [PDF]
Recent studies have demonstrated that differentiated somatic cells from various mammalian species can be reprogrammed into induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells by the ectopic expression of four transcription factors that are highly expressed in embryonic stem (ES) cells.

Induced pluripotent stem cells are induced pluripotent stem cell-like cells [PDF]
Gold is rare and precious, while pyrite (FeS2) is abundant and cheap. Pyrite is nicknamed fool's gold, since pyrite looks like gold and it is even shinier and brighter than gold. It is very difficult to recognize the differences between a real natural gold and a gold-like rock (pyrite) to non-professional persons[1], but we know that all that glitters ...

Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells
Het reduceren en bij voorkeur geheel voorkomen van het verlies van zenuwcellen in het centraal zenuwstelsel van MS-patiënten vormt nog steeds de belangrijkste uitdaging voor nieuwe behandelingsmethodes. Terwijl in de afgelopen jaren aanzienlijke vooruitgang is geboekt in de ontwikkeling van ontstekingsremmende medicijnen die de ernst en frequenties van

A village in a dish model system for population-scale hiPSC studies
The mechanisms by which DNA alleles contribute to disease risk, drug response, and other human phenotypes are highly context-specific, varying across cell types and different conditions.

Non-human primate pluripotent stem cells for the preclinical testing of regenerative therapies
Non-human primates play a key role in the preclinical validation of pluripotent stem cell-based cell replacement therapies. Pluripotent stem cells used as advanced therapy medical products boost the possibility to regenerate tissues and organs affected ...

Chromatin structure of pluripotent stem cells and induced pluripotent stem cells [PDF]
Pluripotent embryonic stem (ES) cells are specialized cells with a dynamic chromatin structure, which is intimately connected with their pluripotency and physiology. In recent years somatic cells have been reprogrammed to a pluripotent state through over-expression of a defined set of transcription factors.

Hematopoietic cell differentiation from embryonic and induced pluripotent stem cells [PDF]
Pluripotent stem cells, both embryonic stem cells and induced pluripotent stem cells, are undifferentiated cells that can self-renew and potentially differentiate into all hematopoietic lineages, such as hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), hematopoietic ...
