  • Enhanced Efficiency of Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell Generation from Human Somatic Cells
    Publication number: 20120220030
    Abstract: A substantially pure population of human somatic cells that have enhanced potential to become induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS cells) is provided. Also provided are methods for generating this population of cells and methods for generating iPS cells from this population of cells.
    Type: Application
    Filed: August 18, 2010
    Publication date: August 30, 2012
    Inventors: Renee A. Reijo Pera, James Byrne
  • IMAGING AND EVALUATING EMBRYOS, OOCYTES, AND STEM CELLS
    Publication number: 20120095287
    Abstract: Methods, compositions and kits for determining the developmental potential of one or more embryos or pluripotent cells and/or the presence of chromosomal abnormalities in one or more embryos or pluripotent cells are provided. These methods, compositions and kits find use in identifying embryos and oocytes in vitro that are most useful in treating infertility in humans.

  • Isolation, characterization and differentiation of in vitro adult human germ line stem cells
    Publication number: 20100267134
    Abstract: A method of in vitro maturation of adult human germ line cells in an artificial biological environment, which entails: a) isolating human spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs), and optionally purifying the same; and b) co-culturing the isolated and optionally purified SSCs with a suitably adjusted Sertoli cell environment to obtain haploid germ cells.
