  • TRANSFORMED HUMAN PLURIPOTENT STEM CELLS AND ASSOCIATED METHODS
    Publication number: 20160264935
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides transformed human pluripotent stem cell (t-hPSC). t-hPSCs are not dependent on Oct4 for renewal and survival, however exhibit a sensitivity to reduced levels of the transcription factor Nanog. Also provided are methods of culturing cells for use in a cell-based screening assay comprising placing one or more transformed human pluripotent stem cells into a receptacle and culturing said stem cells in the receptacle to form a monolayer of stem cells without cell overlap. Methods of screening compounds using t-hPSCs are also described.
    Type: Application
    Filed: May 25, 2016
    Publication date: September 15, 2016
