摘要:
The invention relates to the field of stem cells and, specially, to the reprogramming of adult somatic cells; to obtain pluripotent cells by the transfection of specific genes. Thus, the invention provides induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS) and methods of obtaining and using them.
摘要:
Methods and compositions are provided for, inter alia, the generation of induced pluripotent stem cells. Induced pluripotent stem cells may be generated by reprogramming and inhibition of p53. Further, useful intermediates for the generation of induced pluripotent stem cells are also provided.
摘要:
Provided herein are methods and compositions for generating vascular progenitor cells that can in turn be differentiated into endothelial, smooth muscle, and hematopoietic cells. The present methods provide a faster, safer, and more efficient in vitro differentiation program than existing methodologies. The differentiated cells can be used for research and therapeutic applications, such as cell transplantation.
