The basal lamina is a specialized sheet of dense extracellular matrix (ECM) linked to the plasma membrane of specific cell types in their tissue context, which serves as a structural scaffold for organ genesis and maintenance. Disruption of the basal
The rat is a reference animal model for physiological studies and for the analysis of multigenic human diseases such as hypertension, diabetes, neurological disorders, and cancer. The rats have long been used in extensive chemical carcinogenesis studies. Thus, the rat
Mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) serve as a feeder layer for both mouse and human embryonic stem cells (ES cells) and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs).
Read types of stem cells including multipotent stem cells, Pluripotent stem cells and iPSCs and their applications in basic stem cell research, stem cell therapy and disease modelling
The Simplicon™ RNA Reprogramming Technology is a next generation reprogramming system that uses a single synthetic, polycistronic self-replicating RNA strand engineered to mimic cellular RNA to generate human iPS cells.
