Nicolaj Stroeyer Christophersen has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Publication number: 20230340595
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of screening a cell population for contaminating residual undifferentiated stem cells by detecting the expression of one or more markers in the cell population, which expression is effectively silenced as PSCs are differentiated into specialized cells of either of the three germ layers.

  • Patent number: 11274280
    Abstract: The present invention relates to generation of functional beta cells from human pluripotent stem cell-derived endocrine progenitors. The present invention also relates to functional beta cells produced by said methods and uses of said beta cells.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20210230554
    Abstract: The present invention relates to method of generation of functional mature beta cells from human pluripotent stem cell-derived endocrine progenitors. The present invention also relates to functional mature beta cells produced by said methods and uses of said mature beta cells for treating diabetes.
    Type: Application

  • Publication number: 20200002670
    Abstract: The present invention relates to differentiation of stem cells into a homogeneous endocrine progenitor cell population suitable for further differentiation into pancreatic beta-cells. The present invention provides methods for obtaining NGN3/NKX2.2 double positive endocrine progenitor cells by exposing precursor cells to a TGF-? type I receptor inhibitor, a BMP antagonist, an adenylate cyclase activator and nicotinamide and/or exposing to the precursor cells to a selection of small molecules.
