Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method for producing a cell with exogenous mitochondria by obtaining synthetic mitochondria via introduction of exogenous mitochondrial DNA into mitochondria or empty mitochondrial shells, and incorporating the same into mammalian cells via endocytosis. As such, effective functionality of exogenous mitochondria in cells is realized. The synthetic mitochondrial DNA genes introduced according to the present disclosure can be stably expressed and effectively passaged. The method for introducing exogenous mitochondrial DNA into mammalian cells as disclosed herein may be used as a whole new mitochondrial molecular cloning means to perform site-directed mutagenesis, gene insertion, gene knockout, gene rearrangement, and the like in mitochondria. Therefore, any molecular cloning modification can be performed on a mammalian mitochondrial DNA, which is of great importance to therapeutic schemes of diseases derived from mitochondrial DNA mutations.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for increasing the efficiency of inducing pluripotent stem cells by utilizing genes Jhdm1a that modify histone. By utilizing Jhdm1a, and a stem cell inducing factor, the present invention increases the efficiency of inducing pluripotent stem cells and increases the quality of induced pluripotent stem cells. The stem cell inducing factor is a combination of Oct4 and Klf4, or a combination of Sox2, Oct4, and Klf4, or a combination of Oct4 and Sox2, and Oct4 alone. The method further comprises exposing the cells to vitamin C, which further increases the efficiency of inducing pluripotent stem cells as compared with the case where no vitamin C is used. By using less stem cell reducing factors, the method of the present invention reduces the potential carcinogenicity, obtains a high inducing efficiency, and provides high-quality induced pluripotent stem cells capable of germ-line transmission.
