  1. 1. Generation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) lines deficient for genes associated with neurodevelopmental diseases using CRISPR/Cas9 technology

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Claudia De Guidi; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) can self-renew and differentiate into many other cell types. IPSCs are derived from somatic cells, and upon reprogramming, they share an expression profile similar to embryonic stem cells (ESCs). READ MORE

  4. 3. Study of up-regulated genes in gene clusters during formation of mature hepatocytes from human induced pluripotent stem cells to identify transcription factors and mirnas

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Suraj Thomas Alexander; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The multifunctional purpose of hepatocytes, the functional liver cells within the metabolic, endocrine and secretory functions highlights key importance in emphasizing the research and treatment methods that utilize these cells. Forming 80% of the liver's cells, hepatocytes are involved in many of the primary functions of the liver including the delivery of immune response against pathogens and aiding in the detoxification of drugs.
