  1. Establishment and Characterization of Disease-specific Human iPSCs in Serum-, Integration- and Feeder-free Cultures., Hamada A,, Nakase Y, Obayashi F, Fukutani T, Nakatao H, Sakaue E, Yamasaki S, Kanda T, Koizumi K, Yoshioka Y, Tani R, Toratani S, JD. Sato, T. Okamoto, Society for In Vitro Biology Meeting, 2019/06/09, With Invitation, English, Society for In Vitro Biology, Tampa, Florida, USA, Human pluripotent stem cells hold great promise for their practical and scientific potential. To improve understanding self-renewal and differentiation, we have reported the successful generation and culture of hiPSCs from dental pulp cells (DPCs) and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) with a non-integrating replication-defective and persistent Sendai virus vector expressing four key reprogramming genes (SeVdp (KOSM)) using hESF9 serum-free medium in feeder-free culture conditions. We found that using this system pluripotent and self-renewing hiPSCs could be easily and stably generated and propagated. We successfully generated hiPSCs from the hereditary disease patients with abnormalities in oral-maxillofacial region, such as Cleidocranial dysplasia (CCD: RUNX2 mutation), Cowden syndrome (PTEN), Noonan syndrome (K-Ras), von Recklinghausen’s disease (NF1), and Nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome (PTCH1) . We have found that these patient-derived iPSCs retained disease-specific phenotypes during in vitro embryoid body formation assays and in vivo teratoma formation assays. These disease-specific iPSCs models will help to clarify the molecular mechanisms underlying these diseases, and they will be useful for screening therapeutic drug, and for developing medical applications of iPSCs
