Abstract:
Induced pluripotent stem cells(iPS)are derived from the differentiated somatic cells that regain the differentiation capabilities by the direct nuclear reprogramming with the exogenous factors.The methods for iPS induction evolved from transcription factors to RNA binding proteins,small molecules,and extracellular signals with the efforts in improving biosafty.The cellular and epigenetic characterization for iPS generation is a progressive and time-dependent process,which is tightly associated with the cellular differentiation status.However,epigenetics of iPS is not same as the embryonic stem cells.In combination with gene therapy and cellular transplantation therapy,the achievements of iPS had been applied in animal disease model treatment.
