Research Abstract |
We were engaged in research to generate iPS cells from somaticcells of patients with various hereditary diseases, induced these iPS ells to differentiate appropriately into the cells the diseased organs,and thereby elucidate the etiology and the mechanisms of the diseases. We succeeded the generation of disease-specific iPS cells from patients with congenital neutropenia, Duchenne muscular dystrophy, CINCA syndrome, Nakajyo-Nishimura syndrome, spinal muscular atrophy, Chediak-Higashi syndrome, Hirschsprung disease by using conventional retroviral method. We failed to generate iPS cells from patients with Fanconi Anemia and reticular dysgenesis without gene collection at the stage of skin fibroblasts. We have confirmed recapitulation of phenotypes with several disease-specific iPS cells including CINCA syndrome, reticular dysgenesis and Chediak-Higashi syndrome.
