摘要:
The invention is directed to compositions of cell aggregates and methods for making and using the cell aggregates where the aggregates comprise cells that are not embryonic stern cells but can differentiate into cell types of at least two of ectodermal, undo dermal, and mesodermal embryonic germ layers, e.g., stem cells.

Also provided are methods of isolation and culture, as well as therapeutic uses for the isolated cells in cardiac indications.
摘要:
The present invention relates generally to mammalian multipotent adult stem cells (MASC), and more specifically to methods for obtaining, maintaining and differentiating MASC to cells of multiple tissue types. Uses of MASC in the therapeutic treatment of disease are also provided.

The invention is directed to methods for making cells in vitro that have an extra-embryonic endodermal precursor phenotype. The method involves culturing cells from blastocysts under specific defined conditions.
摘要:
The invention is directed to methods for culturing cells so that the cells are induced to differentiate into cells that express hepatocyte phenotypes and hepatocyte progenitor phenotypes. More particularly, the invention relates to methods for culturing cells so that the cells are induced to differentiate into cells that express a definitive endodermal phenotype, a liver-committed endodermal phenotype, a hepatoblast phenotype, and hepatocyte phenotype. The invention is also directed to cells produced by the methods of the invention. The cells are useful, among other things, for treatment of liver deficiency, liver metabolism studies, and liver toxicity studies.
