Journal ArticleDOI

Highly efficient neural conversion of human ES and iPS cells by dual inhibition of SMAD signaling

TL;DR: Noggin/SB431542-based neural induction should facilitate the use of hES and hiPS cells in regenerative medicine and disease modeling and obviate the need for protocols based on stromal feeders or embryoid bodies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modelling pathogenesis and treatment of familial dysautonomia using patient-specific iPSCs

TL;DR: The derivation of patient-specific FD-iPSCs and the directed differentiation into cells of all three germ layers including peripheral neurons are reported, illustrating the promise of iPSC technology for gaining new insights into human disease pathogenesis and treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Conserved vertebrate mir-451 provides a platform for Dicer-independent, Ago2-mediated microRNA biogenesis

TL;DR: It is shown that maturation of miR-451, a functional miRNA that is perfectly conserved among vertebrates, is independent of Dicer, and the mir-451 backbone is amenable to reprogramming, permitting vector-driven expression of diverse functional miRNAs in the absence of Dacer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Safe harbours for the integration of new DNA in the human genome

TL;DR: 'genomic safe harbours' are discussed — chromosomal locations where therapeutic transgenes can integrate and function in a predictable manner without perturbing endogenous gene activity and promoting cancer.
