  7. 5. Novel Culture Strategies and Signal Transduction Pathways of Pluripotent Stem Cells

    Author : Sara Pijuan Galitó; Cecilia Annerén; Lena Kjellén; Christopher Ward; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Pluripotent stem cells; Inter-alpha inhibitor; culture method; Biologi med inriktning mot molekylär cellbiologi; Biology with specialization in Molecular Cell Biology; Biology with specialization in Molecular Biotechnology; Biologi med inriktning mot molekylär bioteknik;

    Abstract : Pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) can self-renew indefinitely in culture while maintaining their capacity to differentiate into any cell type of an organism, thus offering novel sources for drug screening, in vitro disease modelling, and cell replacement therapies. However, due to their sensitive nature, many PSC lines are still cultured using undefined components such as serum or serum-derived components, on either feeder cells or complex protein mixes such as Matrigel or gelatine.
