Continuous release of bFGF from multilayer nanofilm to maintain undifferentiated human iPS cell cultures.
نویسندگان
چکیده
In most cases, induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells must be maintained by replacing basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF)-containing medium daily to inhibit spontaneous differentiation. However, complete inhibition of differentiation is difficult to achieve even with frequent replacement of medium because of bFGF instability. Here, we established a novel system for the sustained release of bFGF from a modified surface by using a nanofilm fabrication method.

Maintenance of horse embryonic stem cells in different conditions
Embryonic stem cells (ESCs) are originally derived from the ICM of blastocysts and are characterized by their ability to self-renew and their pluripotencies. Only a few reports have been published on ESC isolations and line establishment in animals, even fewer in horses. However, it is still important to isolate equine ESCs for animal biotechnology and therapeutic applications. In the present s...
متن کاملEstablishment of LIF-Dependent Human iPS Cells Closely Related to Basic FGF-Dependent Authentic iPS Cells
Human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) can be divided into a leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF)-dependent naïve type and a basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF)-dependent primed type. Although the former are more undifferentiated than the latter, they require signal transduction inhibitors and sustained expression of the transgenes used for iPSC production. We used a transcriptionally enhan...
متن کاملCryopreserving and recovering of human iPS cells using complete Knockout Serum Replacement feeder-free medium.
The discovery in 2006 that human and mouse fibroblasts could be reprogrammed to generate iPS cells with qualities remarkably similar to embryonic stem cells has created a valuable new source of pluripotent cells for drug discovery, cell therapy, and basic research. GIBCO media and reagents have been at the forefront of pluripotent stem cell research for years. Knockout DMEM supplemented with Kn...
متن کاملPhosphoproteomic analysis of human embryonic stem cells.
Protein phosphorylation, while critical to cellular behavior, has been undercharacterized in pluripotent cells. Therefore, we performed phosphoproteomic analyses of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) and their differentiated derivatives. A total of 2546 phosphorylation sites were identified on 1602 phosphoproteins; 389 proteins contained more phosphorylation site identifications in undifferenti...
متن کاملI-33: Oxidative Stress Responses in EarlyPregnancy
Background: Survival of the conceptus is dependent on continuous progesterone signaling in the maternal decidua but how this is achieved under conditions of oxidative stress that characterize early pregnancy is unknown. Materials and Methods: Laboratory-based analysis of endometrial biopsies and primary endometrial cultures. Results: Using primary cultures, we show that modest levels of reactiv...
