Abstract:
The Piwil2 gene belongs to the Piwi family of genes conserved during evolution from Arabidopsis to human. The Piwi family genes are considered as stem cell modulators functioning in meristem cell division in Arabidopsis and germ stem cell propagation in C.elegans and in mammals. Although some essential functions such as germ cell development, transposition repression, epigenetic modification and translational regulation, as well as stem cell and cancer stem cell maintenance, are attributed to this family of genes, the detailed mechanism of the function of these genes still remains elusive.

Abstract:
The ability to reprogram adult somatic cells into induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells could provide a valuable implement for in vitro disease modeling and drug discovery. More importantly, they may potentially serve as an unlimited source of cells for regenerative medicine. However, most of the iPS cells have been generated by retroviral vectors, and therefore they carry the risk of viral integration into the host genome. This problem prevents their use for clinical applications and regenerative medicine. mRNA-mediated delivery of reprogramming factors is an alternative approach for cellular

Abstract:
The generation of induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells is a useful tool for regenerative medicine. However, the risk of tumor development of the aforementioned cells should be addressed before they can be used for clinical applications. During the reprogramming process a number of signal pathways are activated, which may lead to direct differentiation of specific cell lineages prior to the cells reaching the pluripotent state. In order to test this hypothesis we designed a combined protocol of reprogramming and differentiation in an attempt to achieve direct differentiation of fibroblasts to s

Abstract:
Current usage of human embryonic stem cells (hES) and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS) in clinical therapies and personalized medicine are limited as a result of ethical, technical and medical problems that arise from isolation and generation of these cells.
