  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

  3. 2. Identifying Cell Reprogramming Roadblocks by Modelling Induced Pluripotency with Boolean Networks and Dynamical Systems

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för astronomi och teoretisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation; Lunds universitet/Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

    Author : Johannes Isaksson; [2018]
    Keywords : Stem cells; pluripotency; pluripotent; reprogramming; iPS; induced pluripotency; Boolean; dynamical systems; network.; Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Abstract : The generation of induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells from differentiated cells is a process of great scientific interest due to the medical potential of such cells. This process (called 'reprogramming' of cells) is however notoriously inefficient and still not very well understood. READ MORE

  4. 3. Metoder som minskar bildning av teratom vid in vivo transplantation av inducerade pluripotenta celler

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biomedical Sciences and Veterinary Public Health

    Author : Therese de Haan; [2013]
    Keywords : inducerade pluripotenta celler; iPS-celler; pluripotens; teratom; cancerceller; virala; vektorer; transgener; Oc3 4; Klf4; Sox2; c-Myc;

    Abstract : Inducerad pluripotens innebär att man inducerar mogna celler till att övergå i ett pluripotent stadium och bilda så kallade inducerade pluripotenta celler (iPS-celler). Detta görs till exempel genom viral integration av transkriptionsfaktorerna octamer-binding transcription factor 3 och 4 (Oct3/4), sex determining region Y-box 2 (Sox2), Krüppel-like factor 4 (Klf4) och c-Myc.
