Abstract:
Current methodologies for hepatocyte induction from human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) have limited efficacy due to lack of a functional hepatocyte reporter. To address this, we developed an endogenous albumin (ALB)-sfGFP reporter system in hiPSCs using homologous directed recombination (HDR)-mediated knock-in. The hiPSCs maintained the characteristic morphology, pluripotency, and normal karyotype while demonstrating successful differentiation into all three germ layers both in vitro and in vivo. Co-expression of EGFP and ALB was observed in the derived hepatocyte-like cells (HLCs). This reporter system holds promise for functional hepatocyte induction.
