摘要:
Certain embodiments disclosed herein are directed to a method of producing endoderm cells, such as definitive endoderm cells by exposing stem cells such as embryonic stem cells or induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells to an effective amount of at least one compound described herein to differentiate the stem cells into the endoderm cells such as definitive endoderm cells. Differentated endoderm cells produced by the methods disclosed herein can be differentiated into pancreatic epithelium, and other endoderm derivatives such as thymus, liver, stomach, intestine and lung. Another aspect of the present invention relates to a method of producing pancreatic progenitor cells, such as Pdx1-positive pancreatic progenitor cells by exposing endoderm cells, such as definitive endoderm cells to an effective amount of at least one compound described herein to differentiate the definitive endoderm cells into Pdx1-positive pancreatic progenitor cells. Kits and compositions comprising Pdx1-positive pancreatic progenitor produced using the methods are also described.
摘要:
The present invention concerns the discovery that proteins encoded by a family of genes, termed here HDx-related genes, which are involved in the control of chromatin structure and, thus in transcription and translation. The present invention makes available compositions and methods that can be utilized, for example to control cell proliferation and differentiation in vitro and in vivo.
摘要:
The present invention provides compositions and methods to facilitate the identification of compounds that are capable of interacting with a biological macromolecule of interest. A composition is provided that comprises an array of chemical compounds attached to a solid support, wherein the density of the array of compounds is at least 1000 spots per cm2. The inventive arrays are generated by: providing a solid support functionalized with a selected chemical moiety capable of interacting with a chemical compound to form an attachment and delivering compounds to the solid support having a density of at least 1000 spots per cm2. The present invention also provides methods for utilizing these arrays to identify small molecule partners for biological macromolecules of interest.

摘要:
The present invention provides a system for high-throughput analysis of chemical compounds. Assays are performed in a high density platform, and compounds having pre-determined desirable effects are identified. Preferably, the compounds have biological effects, more preferably, the assays and detection are performed on whole cells.
摘要:
This invention is directed to a modified cyclosporin A and to a modified, genetically engineered version of its receptor, cyclophilin. This invention is further directed to a method for treating host versus graft disease following blood marrow transplantation by transfecting stem cells so that after introduction into a patient the stem cells will express the modified cyclophilin, and, as necessary, administer the modified cyclosporin A to the patient.
