Research Abstract |
Microarray analysis showed the expression level of many genes involved in intercellular signaling changed during generation of induced pluripotent stem(iPS) cells from somatic cells. The genes included diverse downstream targets of NF-kB signal. To address the function of NF-kB signaling during iPS cell generation process, we conducted loss-of-function experiment and demonstrated that NF-kB signaling have positive effect on the reprogramming process, but not maintenance of established iPS cells.
