Abstract:
Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are genetically reprogrammed somatic cells that exhibit features identical to those of embryonic stem cells (ESCs). Multiple approaches are available to derive iPSCs, among which the Sendai virus is the most effective at reprogramming different cell types. Here we describe a rapid, efficient, safe, and reliable approach to reprogram human fibroblasts into iPSCs that are compatible with future iPSCs uses such as genome editing and differentiation to a transplantable cell type.
