Abstract: Provided is a method for inducing T cells for a cell-based immunotherapy, comprising the steps of: (1) providing Rag 1 and/or Rag 2 gene knockout human pluripotent stem cells bearing genes encoding a T cell receptor specific for a desired antigen, and (2) inducing T cells from the pluripotent stem cells of step (1). Further provided are a cell-based immunotherapy method that uses the T cells for the cell-based immunotherapy and an iPS cell bank for the cell-based immunotherapy.

Abstract: An adjustable seat assembly which comprises a seat bottom and a seat back, a reclining mechanism for connecting the seat back to the seat bottom for the adjustment of the tilt of the seat back relative to the seat bottom, a slide mechanism for mounting the seat bottom on a support surface for the adjustment of the position of the seat in a direction along the support surface, and a multifunctional handle supported for movement in at least first and second directions for controlling the reclining and slide mechanisms, respectively. Where the seat assembly further comprises a seat lifting mechanism for the adjustment of the height of the seat above the support surface, the handle may be rendered movable also in a third direction, in which case the first and second are opposite to each other and the third direction is perpendicular to any one of the first and second directions.
