Stem Cells, the Molecular Circuitry of Pluripotency and Nuclear Reprogramming
Reprogramming of somatic cells to a pluripotent embryonic stem cell-like state has been achieved by nuclear transplantation of a somatic nucleus into an enucleated egg and most recently by introducing defined transcription factors into somatic cells. Nuclear reprogramming is of great medical interest, as it has the potential to generate a source of patient-specific cells. Here, we review strate...
متن کاملPluripotency and nuclear reprogramming.
Embryonic stem cells are promising donor cell sources for cell transplantation therapy, which may in the future be used to treat various diseases and injuries. However, as is the case for organ transplantation, immune rejection after transplantation is a potential problem with this type of therapy. Moreover, the use of human embryos presents serious ethical difficulties. These issues may be ove...
متن کاملTotipotency, pluripotency and nuclear reprogramming.
Mammalian development commences with the totipotent zygote which is capable of developing into all the specialized cells that make up the adult animal. As development unfolds, cells of the early embryo proliferate and differentiate into the first two lineages, the pluripotent inner cell mass and the trophectoderm. Pluripotent cells can be isolated, adapted and propagated indefinitely in vitro i...

متن کاملReprogramming somatic cells: pluripotency through gene induction and nuclear transfer
Background: The understanding of nuclear reprogramming pathways provides important contributions to applied and basic sciences such as the development of autologous cellular therapies for the treatment of numerous diseases, the improved efficiency of animal-based biotechnology or the generation of functional gametes in vitro. Strategies such as nuclear transfer and induced reprogramming have be...
