Research progresses of iPSCs (induced pluripotent stem cells) and ESCs (embryonic stem cells) are expected that their differentiation into various cell type are applied to regenerative medicine.1-3) However, their properties, self-renewing and differentiation, make these cells tumorigenic.4-7) The tumor formation was found to positively correlate with the residual undifferentiated pluripotent cells.6)
PluriSIn 1 (1) a stearoyl-CoA desaturase inhibitor, resulting in inhibition of oleate synthesis, and can eliminate human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) selectively.8) Ben-David et al. have proposed mechanism that the inhibition selectively leads to endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, unfolded protein response, and translational attenuation in hPSCs, which finally result in apoptosis.8)
The product is for research purpose only.
