[発表論文] Human Cell!

当研究室の研究成果が「Human Cell」誌に掲載されました! 現在は立命館大学の助教であるRodiさんがこの研究をリードして、成果として発表することができました。 Title: An efficient simplified method for the generation of corneal epithelial cells from human pluripotent stem cells Rodi Abdalkader* & Ken-ichiro Kamei* Abstract: Corneal epithelial cells derived from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) are an important cell source for preclinical models to test ophthalmic drugs. However, current differentiation Read more…

[発表論文]

絶滅危惧動物であるグレビーシマウマのiPS細胞を作成することに成功しました!その成果が「Stem Cells and Development」誌に掲載されました。京大野生動物研究センター村山先生、遠藤博士、京大CiRA沖田先生との共同研究の結果です! Title: Generation and gene expression profiles of Grevy’s zebra induced Pluripotent Stem Cells Abstract: Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) can serve as a biological resource for functional and conservation research for various species. This realisation has led to the generation of iPSCs from many species, including those Read more…
