Derivation of Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells From an Existing Collection of Human Somatic Cells
Induced pluripotent stem cells potentially may be useful in the future as an unlimited source of cells for transplantation.
The major goal of the project is to develop human iPS cells from various types of cell cultures or lines from existing collections. The IPS cells will be developed for modeling diseases, for developing the technology that may eventually allow the use of IPS cells for transplantation therapy, and for basic research.
Inclusion: Volunteers; Male and Female.
Exclusion: Below the official age of consent.
