HLA Class I Depleted hESC as a Source of Hypoimmunogenic Cells for Tissue Engineering Applications
28 Jul 2015
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Rapidly improving protocols for the derivation of autologous cells from stem cell sources is a welcome development. However, there are many circumstances when off-the-shelf universally immunocompatible cells may be needed. Embryonic stem cells (ESCs) provide a unique opportunity to modify the original source of differentiated cells to minimize their rejection by nonautologous hosts. HYPOTHESIS: Immune...
