Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Induced pluripotent stem cel s can bypass the ethical issues of embryonic stem cel s, and become the hotspot of stem cel research. OBJECTIVE:To explore the research progress and problems of induced pluripotent stem cel s. METHODS:A retrospective analysis on the findings, research progress and problems of induced pluripotent stem cel s in recent years was performed. The Thomson Reuters Web of Science was searched for the articles related to the induced pluripotent stem cel s and p53 gene. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:In recent years, domestic and foreign scholars have conducted a lot of researches on induced pluripotent stem cel s. For example, a Japanese group is establishing the stem cel bank to provide a basis for the treatment of retinal diseases. However, the safety issues of induced pluripotent stem cel s need to be solved before routine cel treatment application, in which the functional research of related p53 gene is one of the essential concerns. The other member of p53 gene, p73 gene, also participates in the generation and differentiation of induced pluripotent stem cel s, and the in-depth studies are needed. The finding of p53 gene function wil promote the in-depth development of regenerative medicine and translational medicine.
