Article: Research from Kyoto University provides new data about stem cell research.

"Induced pluripotent stem ( iPS) cells are a novel stem cell population induced from mouse and human adult somatic cells through reprogramming by transduction of defined transcription factors. However, detailed differentiation properties and the directional differentiation system of iPS cells have not been demonstrated," investigators in Kyoto, Japan report (see also Stem Cell Research).

"Previously, we established a novel mouse embryonic stem ( ES) cell differentiation system that can reproduce the early differentiation processes of cardiovascular cells. We applied our ES cell system to iPS cells and examined directional differentiation of mouse iPS cells to ...
