Cell Fusion-Mediated Nuclear Reprogramming of Somatic Cells
Epigenetic reprogramming of nuclei from differentiated to pluripotent state can be induced by three experimental approaches: nuclear transfer, cell fusion, and transduction of transcription factors. In cell fu...

Generation of Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells from Human Amnion Cells
Induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells have been generated through nuclear reprogramming of somatic cells via retrovirus- or lentivirus-mediated transduction of exogenous reprogramming factors OCT3/4, SOX2, KLF4, a...

Familiarity and Prudence of the Japanese Public with Research into Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells, and Their Desire for its Proper Regulation
The lack of knowledge of current public attitudes towards basic research into induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) is a serious problem when considering appropriate ways of governance regarding research and ...
