Functional modules distinguish human induced pluripotent stem cells from embryonic stem cells.
It has been debated whether human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and embryonic stem cells (ESCs) express distinctive transcriptomes. By using the method of weighted gene co-expression network analysis, we showed here that iPSCs exhibit altered functional modules compared with ESCs. Notably, iPSCs and ESCs differentially express 17 modules that primarily function in transcription, metabo...
متن کاملEmbryonic Stem Cells/induced Pluripotent Stem Cells
Understanding the regulation of cell-cell interactions during the formation of compact myocardial structures is important for achieving true cardiac regeneration through enhancing the integration of stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes into the recipient myocardium. In this study, we found that cellular repressor of E1A-stimulated genes 1 (CREG1) is highly expressed in both embryonic and adult hear...
متن کاملLarge-Scale Expansion of Human Embryonic and Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells for Cell Therapy Applications
Successful isolation, derivation and culturing of human pluripotent stem cells, including human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) and human induced pluripotent stem (hiPSCs) cells in laboratory scale has opened new horizones for cell therapy applications such as tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. However, most of the cell therapy protocols using these unique cells require large number of ...
متن کاملInduced 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 ...
متن کاملEmbryonic Stem Cells/Induced Pluripotent Stem (iPS) Cells Chemically Induced Specification of Retinal Ganglion Cells From Human Embryonic and Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells
The loss of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) is the primary pathological change formany retinal degenerative diseases.Althoughthere is currentlynoeffective treatment for this groupofdiseases, cell transplantation to replace lost RGCs holds great potential. However, for the development of cell replacement therapy, better understanding of themolecular details involved in differentiating stemcells in...
