Journal ArticleDOI

Direct reprogramming of somatic cells is promoted by maternal transcription factor Glis1

TL;DR: DNA microarray analyses show that Glis1 effectively promotes the direct reprogramming of somatic cells during iPSC generation, including Myc, Nanog, Lin28, Wnt, Essrb and the mesenchymal–epithelial transition.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modeling Drug-Induced Neuropathy Using Human iPSCs for Predictive Toxicology.

TL;DR: It is shown that treatment with drugs known to cause neuropathy caused mitochondrial aggregations in neurites with adenosine triphosphate shortage in both CMT and control neurons, although more severely in CMT.
Journal ArticleDOI

iPSC screening for drug repurposing identifies anti-RNA virus agents modulating host cell susceptibility.

TL;DR: In this paper, a screen of repurposed drugs using Sendai virus (an RNA virus of the family Paramyxoviridae), with human-induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) to explore existing drugs that may present anti-RNA viral activity was conducted.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of neural crest cells from Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease patients demonstrates disease-relevant molecular signature.

TL;DR: It is suggested that patient-iPSC-derived neural crest cells could be a cellular model for investigating genetically heterogeneous disease CMT and might provide a therapeutic target for the disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Induced pluripotent stem cells derived from a patient with familial idiopathic basal ganglia calcification (IBGC) caused by a mutation in SLC20A2 gene

TL;DR: The established IBGC-iPSCs showed typical iPSC morphology, pluripotency markers, normal karyotype, and the ability of in vitro differentiation into three-germ layers, which will be useful for further elucidating the pathomechanism and/or drug development for IBGC.
