Pluripotent Stem Cells
Generation Of Uniform Hepatocytes From Human Embryonic Stem Cells By Inhibiting Tgf-Beta And Methods Of Maintaining Hepatic Cultures
WARF: P150356US03
Inventors: James Thomson, Srikumar Sengupta
The Invention
This disclosure relates generally to new methods of maintaining the expression of hepatic genes in human hepatocytes and method for maintaining the functional hepatic enzyme activity of primary hepatocytes in culture. The disclosure also encompasses new methods of deriving a population of pure hepatocytes without selecting or sorting the cells from the cultured pluripotent cells.
