Alpha-Tocopherol increases the proliferation of induced pluripotent stem cell derived neural progenitor cells
In addition to its antioxidant effect, Vitamin E or α–tocopherol is suggested to enhance remyelination in the animal model of non-inflammatory demyelination. In this study, the possible proliferative effect of vitamin E on human- induced pluripotent stem cell-derived neural progenitors (hiPS-NPs) and the underlying mechanisms were investigated in vitro. NPs were induced from iPS cells via 3 ste...
متن کاملPluripotent stem cell-derived hepatocyte-like cells.
Liver disease is an important clinical problem, impacting over 30 million Americans and over 600 million people worldwide. It is the 12th leading cause of death in the United States and the 16th worldwide. Due to a paucity of donor organs, several thousand Americans die yearly while waiting for liver transplantation. Unfortunately, alternative tissue sources such as fetal hepatocytes and hepati...
متن کاملCharacterisation of human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived hepatocyte-like cells and endodermal progenitors
Background Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) have two fundamental characteristics. First is pluripotency, they have the ability to differentiate to all cell types of the three germ layers endoderm, ectoderm and mesoderm in vitro (by formation of embryoid bodies) and in vivo (by teratoma formation in immune deficient mice). Second, hESCs have the capability to self-renew indefinitely. Embryonic...
متن کاملInduced pluripotent stem cell lines derived from human somatic cells.
Somatic cell nuclear transfer allows trans-acting factors present in the mammalian oocyte to reprogram somatic cell nuclei to an undifferentiated state. We show that four factors (OCT4, SOX2, NANOG, and LIN28) are sufficient to reprogram human somatic cells to pluripotent stem cells that exhibit the essential characteristics of embryonic stem (ES) cells. These induced pluripotent human stem cel...
متن کاملAnalysis of SOX2-Expressing Cell Populations Derived from Human Pluripotent Stem Cells
SOX2 is involved in several cell and developmental processes, including maintenance of embryonic stem cells, differentiation of neural progenitor cells, and patterning of gut endoderm. To study its role in a human system, we generated a human embryonic stem cell (hESC) line harboring a reporter gene encoding GFP in the SOX2 locus. This SOX2 reporter line faithfully recapitulates expression of t...
