Derivation of Diverse Hormone-Releasing Pituitary Cells from Human Pluripotent Stem Cells
1 Jun 2016
Abstract excerpt
Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) provide an unlimited cell source for regenerative medicine. Hormone-producing cells are particularly suitable for cell therapy, and hypopituitarism, a defect in pituitary gland function, represents a promising therapeutic target. Previous studies have derived pituitary lineages from mouse and human ESCs using 3D organoid cultures that mimic the complex events underlying...
