Dua tokoh utama adalah yang sangat populer menjembatani pengetahuan medis yang sangat reduksionis dan basic science, biolgi, yaitu Sir John Gurdon dan Shinya Yamanaka. Sir John Gurdon adalah professeor biologi pertama yang mendapatkan sel... more
Oculocutaneous albinism (OCA) is a group of hereditary recessive disorder recognized as a loss of pigmentation. OCA can derive from mutations in different genes that produce melanin. These mutations cause disturbances to get a standard... more
Human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) provide a powerful platform for disease modeling and have unlocked new possibilities for understanding the mechanisms governing human biology, physiology, and genetics. However,... more
Human-induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) and CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing system represent two instruments of basic and translational research, which both allow to acquire deep insight about the molecular bases of many diseases but also... more
This review summarizes the structural and electrophysiological changes in the epileptic hippocampus in various animal models of epilepsy. Tornado hypothesis of epileptic hippocampus, states that there are many progressive detrimental... more
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD) are two age-dependent multifactorial neurodegenerative disorders, which are typically characterized by the selective death of motor neurons and cerebral cortex neurons,... more
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD) are two age-dependent multifactorial neurodegenerative disorders, which are typically characterized by the selective death of motor neurons and cerebral cortex neurons,... more
Age related macular degeneration (AMD) is the most common cause of blindness, accounting for 8.7% of all blindness globally. Vision loss is caused ultimately by apoptosis of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and overlying... more
The discovery of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) in 2006 has inspired almost all areas of the life sciences. In the first report about iPSCs from Takahashi & Yamanaka, terminally differentiated cells (adult skin fibroblasts) were... more
Hemophilia A is a hemorrhage disorder inherited according to the X-linked inheritance pattern. It affects about 1 in 4,000 to 10,000 males. Permanent changes in the F8 gene result in hemophilia A. These changes result in an abnormal... more
Work over several decades has laid solid foundations for the advancement of liver cell therapy. To date liver cell therapy in people has taken the form of hepatocyte transplantation for metabolic disorders with a hepatic basis, and for... more
С появлением революционной технологии перепрограммирования соматических клеток в омоложенные стволовые клетки, называемые индуцированными стволовыми клетками (ИПСК), человечество, казалось бы, получило фонтан вечной молодости и... more
Reprogramming somatic cells into induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells is nowadays approaching effectiveness and clinical grade. Potential uses of this technology include predictive toxicology, drug screening, pathogenetic studies and... more
Damaging GATA6 variants cause cardiac outflow tract defects, sometimes with pancreatic and diaphragmic malformations. To define molecular mechanisms for these diverse developmental defects, we studied transcriptional and epigenetic... more
Translation of pharmacological results from in vitro cell testing to clinical trials is challenging. One of the causes that may underlie these discrepant results is the lack of the phenotypic or species-specific relevance of the tested... more
Liver transplantation remains the only solution for patients suffering from severe end-stage liver disease. Only 33% of these patients on the transplant waiting list will receive a donation; furthermore, the demand for livers is expected... more
Generation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) by somatic cell reprogramming involves global epigenetic remodelling. Whereas several proteins are known to regulate chromatin marks associated with the distinct epigenetic states of... more
Cell-based therapies to treat retinal degeneration are now being tested in clinical trials. However, it is not known whether the source of stem cells is important for the production of differentiated cells suitable for transplantation. To... more
Adenylate kinases (AKs) are phosphotransferases that regulate the cellular adenine nucleotide composition and play a critical role in the energy homeostasis of all tissues. The AK2 isoenzyme is expressed in the mitochondrial intermembrane... more
Tonic conductance mediated by extrasynaptic GABAA receptors has been implicated in the modulation of network oscillatory activity. Using an in vitro brain slice to produce oscillatory activity and a kinetic model of GABAA receptor... more
Mitochondrial diseases are heterogeneous disorders, caused by mitochondrial dysfunction. Mitochondria are not regulated solely by nuclear genomic DNA but by mitochondrial DNA. It is difficult to develop effective therapies for... more
