摘要:
The present invention provides improved methods of differentiating insulinnull, glucose responsive islet-like structures from insulinnull cells. The invention further provides methods for using insulinnull, glucose responsive islet-like structures, as well as the insulinnull, glucose responsive cells which comprise said islet-like clusters.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a medium composition comprising neuropeptide Y, effective for proliferation and maintenance of undifferentiated pluripotent stem cells, and a method for culturing undifferentiated pluripotent stem cells using the same. The present invention improves the culture conditions for undifferentiated pluripotent stem cells, and ultimately, the present invention can be effectively used for the development of large-scale culture systems, thereby acquiring clinically applicable pluripotent stem cells. Further, the present invention relates to a dedifferentiation medium composition comprising neuropeptide Y (NPY), and a method for inducing dedifferentiation (or reprogramming) using the same. The present invention improves the culture conditions for dedifferentiation and contributes to develop technology of producing clinically applicable induced pluripotent stem cells, thereby being used for the development of stem cell therapy.
