Research Abstract |
We have investigated about the differentiation toward to kidney using human Renal-iPS (hR-iPS) cells regulated by NF-kB as compared with human Fibroblastic-iPS (hF-iPS) cells. Both iPS cells have shown the activity of NF-kB. As NF-kB activity was knockdown by NF-kB p65 siRNA, the expression of undifferentiated makers decreased, conversely the kidney-associated-differentiated makers increased, especially stronger in hR-iPS than hF-iPS cells. Thus we have suggested that the augmentation of NF-B signaling maintains the undifferentiated state of human iPS, and hR-iPS cells are easy of differentiation toward to kidney. We have reported a part of outcome at the annual meeting of the Japanese Society of Nephrology, Japanese Society of Regenerative Medicine, and to the Journal of ‘PLoS One’.
