  • Publication number: 20110281281
    Abstract: Provided herein are methods for generating human induced pluripotent stem cells free from genomic integration of exogenous transgenes by transfecting into nucleated blood cells one or more DNA expression vectors (e.g., plasmid vectors) that do not contain a mammalian origin of replication, and encode and permit expression of one or more reprogramming factors (e.g., Oct4, Sox2, Klf4, and c-Myc). Also provided herein are the integration-free human induced pluripotent stem cells obtained by the methods described herein.

  • Publication number: 20110262956
    Abstract: Co-culture compositions and methods are described for identifying agents that modulate a cellular phenotype, particularly of neurons or pancreatic beta cells are provided herein, where the methods include co-culturing differentiated cells, wherein at least one of the cell-types are derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells from a subject having or predisposed to a neurodegenerative or metabolic disorder. Co-culture compositions of differentiated cells from two different human subjects are also described.
