A study to improve the differentiation of human embryonic stem cells to functional hepatocytes

2012-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) possess 2 unique properties (1) pluripotency and (2) self-renewal, and therefore, hold great promise for biomedical application and regenerative medicine. In vitro differentiation of hESCs is a vital tool to generate unlimited human hepatocytes. To date, several multi-step protocols have been established to generate hepatocyte-like cells from undifferentiated hESCs via definitive...
