摘要:
The invention provides methods for reprogramming somatic cells to generate multipotent or pluripotent cells. Such methods are useful for a variety of purposes, including treating or preventing a medical condition in an individual. The invention further provides methods for identifying an agent that reprograms somatic cells to a less differentiated state.

摘要:
A reprogramming gene-loaded Sendai viral vector comprising Sendai virus genes and reprogramming genes, wherein the Sendai virus genes include an NP gene, P/C gene, M gene, F gene, HN gene and L gene, wherein each of the M gene, the F gene and the FIN gene is from a Sendai virus strain Cl.151-derived gene and wherein at least one of the M gene, the F gene and the HN gene is functionally deleted and the L gene encodes the amino-acid sequence of the L protein in which the amino-acid residue at position 1618 is valine and a method of producing the same.
摘要:
Stem cell reprogramming genes cloned into a single sustained expression-type Sendai viral vector are shown to reprogram differentiated somatic cells into induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells without integration of vector sequences into the host cell's genome. The genes are transduced into normal differentiated somatic cells via infection with recombinant Sendai virus. After expression of the reprogramming genes and subsequent induction of pluripotency, the vector genome RNA including the reprogramming genes is removed from the cell to establish an iPS cell that is genetically identical to the parent somatic differentiated cell thus reducing the risk of tumorigenic transformation caused by random integration of vector sequences into the host genome. The method promises to provide safe, autologous iPS cells that can be used for human cell replacement and regeneration therapeutic applications.

The invention relates to a method for cloning in the rat by nuclear transfer. The invention further relates to the rats obtained thus, in the foetal or adult state, as well as use thereof for the production of molecules of interest or as study models.
摘要:
The invention pertains to the discovery that the presence of oocyte spindle associated factors in an enucleated oocyte improves oocyte quality and subsequently nuclear transfer. In particular, it was discovered that maintaining oocyte spindle factors in the oocyte after enucleation improves oocyte quality for use in nuclear transfer methodology.
