Stem cells have shown great potential in many fields of study, especially in the field of disease modeling. By reprogramming patient-derived somatic cells, one can obtain induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) with potentially infinite sources, which have the ability to expand and differentiate, allowing researchers to study related human cells without the need for other animal models. Physiologically relevant cell models can speed up the discovery of disease mechanisms.
What are the advantages of stem cells used for disease modeling?
- Animal models (traditional models) may not accurately mimic the disease process in human cells.
- Disease-specific cell models allow investigation of cellular phenotypes.
- hiPSC-based cells are readily accessible, disease progression can be followed over time by live cell imaging.
- hiPSC-based cells bring research closer to clinical.
- hiPSC-based modeling cells can be produced relatively rapidly and in large quantities.
- hiPSC-based cell models by stem cells do not need to breed and maintain transgenic mouse colonies.
Steps of Establishment of Patient-Specific Cell Models
01. EXPANSION
- Recover patient-derived somatic cells
- Expand cells to enough number
02. ENGINEERING
- Reprogramming somatic cells
- Characterize induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC)
03. DIFFERENTIATION
- Induce iPSC to differentiate into target cells
- Characterize target cells
04. VALIDATION
- Validate disease-specific phenotype and genotype
- Test cells for safety
