Cell Therapy for Diabetes
Diabetes exacts a tremendous toll on patients, their families, and society in general. Autoimmune Type 1 diabetes, often called juvenile-onset diabetes, is caused by a person’s own immune system mistakenly…
Unlocking the regenerative potential of hepatocyte plasticity for diseases of the biliary system
Research Objective The research will generate the know-how for replacing lost or injured bile ducts in the liver by reprogramming an abundant and related cell type that normally has a…
Next generation stem cell transplantation approaches for pediatric neurodegenerative disorders
Research Objective A complete methodology for high efficiency, minimal toxicity hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for treatment of pediatric neurodegenerative disorders. Impact Improve treatment and outcomes for patients with neurodegenerative disorders…
Developing replacement islet cells for diabetes using human stem cells
Research Objective We will identify genetic regulators and intercellular signals that promote islet cell function, and apply our work to advance stem cell biology for generating replacement islets to reverse…
Immune cloaking of human stem cell-derived insulin-producing cells for curative cell therapy without immunosuppression
Research Objective The goal of our project is to generate cells for replacement therapy in patients that have reduced ability to trigger the immune response in the recipient and therefore…
hPSC-derived enteric ganglioids for cell therapy in gastrointestinal motility disorders
Research Objective The proposed aims will enable the generation, purification and characterization of enteric neurons from diverse hiPSCs and assessment of their efficacy for cell therapy in GI motility disorders.…
Genome editing of human Tregs to enable combinational tolerogenic therapy with T cell-targeted biologics for T1D
Research Objective Genome-edited autologous regulatory T cells for promoting immune tolerance in combination with T-cell-targeting therapies Impact We focus on type 1 diabetes in this proof-of-concept study, but the therapeutic…
