Genomic instability in induced stem cells

The ability to reprogram adult cells into stem cells has raised hopes for novel therapies for many human diseases. Typical stem cell reprogramming protocols involve expression of a small number of genes in differentiated somatic cells with the c-Myc and Kl ...

The PiggyBac transposon enhances the frequency of CHO stable cell line generation and yields recombinant lines with superior productivity and stability

Florian Maria Wurm, David Hacker, Lucia Baldi Unser

Generating stable, high-producing mammalian cell lines is a major bottleneck in the manufacture of recombinant therapeutic proteins. Conventional gene transfer methods for cell line generation rely on random plasmid integration, resulting in unpredictable ...

Development of a microfluidic on-chip reverse transcription module for the analysis of hematopoietic single stem cells

Viktoria Stepanova

Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) have a unique ability to self-renew and produce differentiated progeny throughout the entire life of the human body. However, present clinical use of HSCs in regenerative medicine is largely hindered by our limited understan ...

Expansion of a VE-Cadherin+CD45+ population in the yolk sac upon Etv2 overexpression in the mouse embryo - Effects of BMP and Wnt signaling inhibition on the differentiation of a Flk1+ extraembryonic mesoderm in vitro model

Matteo Pluchinotta

The difficulty to find compatible donors for bone marrow transplantation makes the need for an alternative source of HSCs urgent. HSC derived from patient-specific iPS cells are ideal candidates for this purpose. Nevertheless, although HSCs are the best ch ...

Targeting of multiple metabolites in neural cells monitored by using protein-based carbon nanotubes

Giovanni De Micheli, Sandro Carrara, Cristina Boero, Giovanna Del Vecchio

Microdevices dedicated to monitor metabolite levels have recently enabled many applications in the field of cell analysis, to monitor cell growth and development of numerous cell lines. By combining the traditional technology used for electrochemical biose ...

Reference Maps of Human ES and iPS Cell Variation Enable High-Throughput Characterization of Pluripotent Cell Lines

The developmental potential of human pluripotent stem cells suggests that they can produce disease-relevant cell types for biomedical research. However, substantial variation has been reported among pluripotent cell lines, which could affect their utility ...

Clinical application of autologous epithelial stem cells in disorders of squamous epithelia

Yann Barrandon, Nicolas Grasset

Epidermis and epithelia lining the ocular surface, the oral cavity, the pharynx, the oesophagus, the larynx, and the vagina, called stratified squamous epithelia (SSE), contain stem/progenitor cells that support renewal and repair. Under appropriate condit ...

Efficient and reproducible mammalian cell bioprocesses without probes and controllers?

Florian Maria Wurm, Mohamed Farhat, David Hacker, Lucia Baldi Unser, Matthieu Dreyer, Stéphanie Tissot, Martino Reclari, Agata Oberbek

Bioprocesses for recombinant protein production with mammalian cells are typically controlled for several physicochemical parameters including the pH and dissolved oxygen concentration (DO) of the culture medium. Here we studied whether these controls are ...

Epigenetic memory in induced pluripotent stem cells

Olaia Maria Naveiras Torres-Quiroga, Kyungjin Kim, Ji Hyun Kim

Somatic cell nuclear transfer and transcription-factor-based reprogramming revert adult cells to an embryonic state, and yield pluripotent stem cells that can generate all tissues. Through different mechanisms and kinetics, these two reprogramming methods ...
