We recently reported that iPSCs can be generated using non-modified mRNA (Arnold et al., 2012). In this report we will focus on the crucial steps for successfully applying this method. Material and methods Results Discussion Acknowledgments The work was supported by funding from the Ger

2018-10-20

The transgenic iPSCs differentiate into embryoid bodies (EBs) containing spontaneously beating EGFP-positive areas, which first appear on day 7–9 of differentiation (Fig. 2A). After 7days of puromycin treatment, nearly all non-cardiomyocytes in EBs are eliminated and the resistant h2 agonist surviv

The dedifferentiation of lineage committed cells

2018-10-20

The dedifferentiation of lineage-committed Cell Cycle Compound Library into more primitive stem-like states during transplantation is similar to the cell-state transitions that occur during tumor initiation (Keller et al., 2010). For example, preceding the onset of basal cell carcinoma, adult tumor-

2018-10-20

Whole-exome sequencing of tumor DNA from GBM 5 identified a total of 32 SNVs (Table S3). A subset of these SNVs was selected for single-cell analysis based on putative gene function and variant allele fractions encompassing high, low, and intermediate frequencies. The genomic targets selected includ

2018-10-20

Human leukocyte class I (HLA-I) molecules are critical for antigen presentation to CD8+ cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (Garrido et al., 1993), and are understood to be widely expressed on the cell surface of all normal human tissues (Daar et al., 1984). However, HLA-I expression has been reported to be abse

Analysis of TCR signatures predicts

2018-10-20

Analysis of TCRβ signatures predicts that several initial “founder” clones of iPSC were present at P4 but that these resolved to a single clone by P20. This was somewhat surprising, as it is often assumed that individually picked colonies of iPSC are derived from a single cell and are therefore clon

2018-10-20

Finally, an important practical implication of our data is that both fibroblasts and blood can be used for the generation of comparable iPSC lines for large-scale biobanking purposes (Figure 6). Our results demonstrate that variability among small cohorts of iPSCs may lead to erroneous conclusions (

Results Discussion The Wnt signaling pathway has emerged as the dominant self-renewal pathway for various adult-type stem cells and is required for maintenance of embryonic as well as induced pluripotent stem cells. In the hematopoietic system, only mild increased Wnt dosages result in higher
