Genome engineering in human pluripotent stem cells
Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) hold great promise for modeling and recapitulation of human biological processes. Coupled with the advent of genome engineering tools, specifically the CRISPR–Cas9 systems, hPSCs have opened a multitude of possibilities in modeling human biology and creating novel cellular therapies. Here, we review the fundamentals of both technologies, and the wide-ranging...
متن کاملCartilage tissue engineering identifies abnormal human induced pluripotent stem cells
Safety is the foremost issue in all human cell therapies, but human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) currently lack a useful safety indicator. Studies in chimeric mice have demonstrated that certain lines of iPSCs are tumorigenic; however a similar screen has not been developed for human iPSCs. Here, we show that in vitro cartilage tissue engineering is an excellent tool for screening hum...
متن کاملEngineering bone tissue substitutes from human induced pluripotent stem cells.
Congenital defects, trauma, and disease can compromise the integrity and functionality of the skeletal system to the extent requiring implantation of bone grafts. Engineering of viable bone substitutes that can be personalized to meet specific clinical needs represents a promising therapeutic alternative. The aim of our study was to evaluate the utility of human-induced pluripotent stem cells (...
متن کاملSite-Specific Genome Engineering in Human Pluripotent Stem Cells
The possibility to generate patient-specific induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) offers an unprecedented potential of applications in clinical therapy and medical research. Human iPSCs and their differentiated derivatives are tools for diseases modelling, drug discovery, safety pharmacology, and toxicology. Moreover, they allow for the engineering of bioartificial tissue and are promising ca...
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 ...
