  • METHOD FOR PREPARING INDUCED PLURIPOTENT STEM CELLS USING MICROVESICLES DERIVED FROM EMBRYONIC STEM CELLS
    Publication number: 20140170746
    Abstract: Provided is a method of dedifferentiating somatic cells using embryonic stem cell-derived microvesicles. Particularly, a method of preparing induced pluripotent stem cells by treating a composition including embryonic stem cell-derived microvesicles to the somatic cells. According to the method of preparing induced pluripotent stem cells, the dedifferentiation of the somatic cells may be efficiently performed without side effects using the embryonic stem cell-derived microvesicles, and moreover, the method is expected to be very useful in developing a cell therapy product having immunocompatibilities by individuals.
