Epigenetic memory in induced pluripotent stem cells [PDF]

open access: greenNature, 2010
Somatic cell nuclear transfer and transcription-factor-based reprogramming revert adult cells to an embryonic state, and yield pluripotent stem cells that can generate all tissues. Through different mechanisms and kinetics, these two reprogramming methods reset genomic methylation, an epigenetic modification of DNA that influences gene expression ...

Disease-Specific Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells [PDF]

open access: yesCell, 2008
Tissue culture of immortal cell strains from diseased patients is an invaluable resource for medical research but is largely limited to tumor cell lines or transformed derivatives of native tissues. Here we describe the generation of induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells from patients with a variety of genetic diseases with either Mendelian or complex ...

Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells and Human Disease [PDF]

open access: bronzeCell Stem Cell, 2008
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.

GMP-compatible and xeno-free cultivation of mesenchymal progenitors derived from human-induced pluripotent stem cells

open access: yesStem Cell Research & Therapy, 2019
Background Human mesenchymal stem cells are a strong candidate for cell therapies owing to their regenerative potential, paracrine regulatory effects, and immunomodulatory activity.

Naïve-like pluripotency to pave the way for saving the northern white rhinoceros from extinction

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
The northern white rhinoceros (NWR) is probably the earth’s most endangered mammal. To rescue the functionally extinct species, we aim to employ induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) to generate gametes and subsequently embryos in vitro.

The alternative 3′ splice site of GPNMB may promote neuronal survival after neonatal hypoxic–ischemic encephalopathy injury

open access: yesIbrain, 2022
This study aimed to decipher the effect of glycoprotein nonmetastatic melanoma protein B (GPNMB) on neonatal hypoxic–ischemic encephalopathy (NHIE) and its potential molecular mechanism.

Fish Pluripotent Stem-Like Cell Line Induced by Small-Molecule Compounds From Caudal Fin and its Developmental Potentiality

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
The technique of induced pluripotent stem cells has significant application value in breeding and preserving the genetic integrity of fish species. However, it is still unclear whether the chemically induced pluripotent stem cells can be induced from non-

A Brief Review of Current Maturation Methods for Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells-Derived Cardiomyocytes

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020
Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death worldwide. Therefore, the discovery of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and the subsequent generation of human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) was a pivotal ...

A novel -mutated human induced pluripotent stem cell model for understanding -mutated tumors

open access: yesTumor Biology, 2020
A missense mutation of the guanine nucleotide binding protein alpha stimulating activity polypeptide 1 ( GNAS ) gene, typically Arg201Cys or Arg201His (R201H/R201C), leads to constitutive activation of the Gsα-cyclic AMP (cAMP) signaling pathway that ...

Erythroid differentiation of human induced pluripotent stem cells is independent of donor cell type of origin

open access: yesHaematologica, 2015
Epigenetic memory in induced pluripotent stem cells, which is related to the somatic cell type of origin of the stem cells, might lead to variations in the differentiation capacities of the pluripotent stem cells.
