Smad1/5 signal transduction regulates the ameloblastic differentiation of induced pluripotent stem cells

Abstract Induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells could be induced into ameloblast-like cells by ameloblasts serum-free conditioned medium (ASF-CM), and bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) might be essential during the regulation of this process. The present study investigates the signal transduction that reg...

A platform to understand amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and extend human motor neurons longevity

Int. j. morphol; 37 (4), 2019
In vitro modeling of neurodegenerative diseases is now possible by using patient-derived induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS). Through them, it is nowadays conceivable to obtain human neurons and glia, and study diseases cellular and molecular mechanisms, an attribute that was previously unavailable to a...

Bases neurobiológicas del autismo y modelos celulares para su estudio experimental
Neurobiological bases of autism and cellular models for its experimental study

Medicina (B.Aires); 79 (1,supl.1), 2019
Los trastornos del espectro autista (TEA) son una alteración funcional de la corteza cerebral, que presenta anomalías estructurales del neurodesarrollo que afectan fundamentalmente a la función sináptica y el patrón de conexiones dentro y entre columnas corticales. Desde su aspecto etiológico, el T...

Induction of pluripotent stem cells by reprogramming human ocular fibroblasts under xeno-free conditions

Arq. bras. oftalmol; 81 (5), 2018
ABSTRACT Purposes: To develop an efficient and xeno-free standard eye-derived induced pluripotent stem cell reprogramming protocol for use during induced pluripotent stem cell-based cell therapies in treating retinal degenerative diseases and to compare the relative effectiveness of both animal- and non...

Induced pluripotent stem cells reprogramming: Epigenetics and applications in the regenerative medicine

Summary Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are somatic cells reprogrammed into an embryonic-like pluripotent state by the expression of specific transcription factors. iPSC technology is expected to revolutionize regenerative medicine in the near future. Despite the fact that these cells have the cap...
