648: Human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) derived 3D model for early placental HCMV infections

Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) based approaches for hematopoietic cancer therapy

Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are reprogrammed from somatic cells through numerous transcription factors. Human induced pluripotent stem cell approaches are developing as a hopeful strategy to improve our knowledge of genetic association studies and the underlying molecular mechanisms.  Rapid progression in stem cell therapy and cell reprogramming provides compelling reasons for its fe...

Isolation and Characterization of Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells-Derived Mesenchymal Progenitors

Purpose: Isolating human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPS)-derived mesenchymal progenitors as a new source of mesenchymal cells which can differentiate into different lineages like adipose and bone. Materials and Methods: After 7 days of hiPS1 culture on matrigle coated dishes, spindle like cells around colonies were removed by cell scraper. These cells that had mesenchymal like morphology ...

Human Testis–Derived Pluripotent Cells and Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells

Generation of 3D Skin Equivalents Fully Reconstituted from Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells (iPSCs)

Recent generation of patient-specific induced pluripotent stem cells (PS-iPSCs) provides significant advantages for cell- and gene-based therapy. Establishment of iPSC-based therapy for skin diseases requires efficient methodology for differentiating iPSCs into both keratinocytes and fibroblasts, the major cellular components of the skin, as well as the reconstruction of skin structures using t...

Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells: Challenges and Opportunities

Regenerative capacity of mammals is limited and can rarely regenerate a specific organ or tissue fully. Due to these limitations, regenerative medicine seeks efficient and safe cell sources for regeneration of damaged tissues and organs or treatment for incurable diseases. Human embryonic stem cells (HESCs) hold two important properties called self renewal and pluripotency. However, the use of ...
