Abstract: Disclosed herein are universal donor stem cells and related methods of their use and production. The universal donor stem cells disclosed herein are useful for overcoming the immune rejection in cell-based transplantation therapies. In certain embodiments, the universal donor stem cells disclosed herein do not express one or more MHC-I and MHC-II human leukocyte antigens. Similarly, in certain embodiments, the universal donor stem cells disclosed herein do not express one or more human leukocyte antigens (e.g., HLA-A, HLA-B and/or HLA-C) corresponding to MHC-I and MHC-II human leukocyte antigens, thereby rendering such cells hypoimmunogenic.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods, compositions, and kits for high efficiency, site-specific genomic editing of cells for treating or preventing genetic blood disorders.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods, compositions, and kits for high efficiency, site-specific genomic editing of cells.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are cells and populations of cells comprising a genome in which the B2M gene has been edited to eliminate surface expression of MHC Class I protein in the cells or population of cells, and methods for allogeneic administration of such cells to reduce the likelihood that the cells will trigger a host immune response when the cells are administered to a subject in need of such cells.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods, compositions, and kits for high efficiency, site-specific genomic editing of cells.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are modified primary human T cells and populations thereof comprising a genome in which the CTLA4, PD1, TCRA, TCRB, and/or B2M genes have been edited to generate an off-the-shelf universal CAR T cell from allogeneic healthy donors that can be administered to any patient while reducing or eliminating the risk of immune rejection or graft versus host disease, and which are not prone to T cell inhibition, and methods for allogeneic administration of such cells to reduce the likelihood that the cells will trigger a host immune response when the cells are administered to a subject in need of such cells.

Abstract: The technology described herein is directed to methods and compositions relating to the differentiation and activity of brown adipocytes, and the therapeutic uses thereof.

Abstract: The invention provides therapeutic compositions comprising reprogrammed adipocyte cells for use as disease models, therapeutic compositions comprising reprogrammed adipocyte cells for the treatment of conditions characterized by a reduction in cell number or tissue mass, and methods of generating such cells.

Abstract: The invention generally features methods for generating hepatocytes from a variety of pluripotent stem cells, including adipose mesenchymal stem cells, therapeutic compositions featuring such cells, and methods of using them for the treatment of subjects.
