Reprogramming human stem cells for blood cell generation
Research Objective To create a universal donor blood cell line that can be used to produce human red blood cells for transplantation. Impact Successful completion of this work would create…
Prodrug innovation to target muscle stem cells and enhance muscle regeneration
Research Objective To target therapeutics to muscle stem cells, the building blocks of skeletal muscle. Impact Drugs, genes and gene editing strategies can be delivered directly to muscle stem cells…
Generation of expandable, self-renewing muscle stem cells for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy
Research Objective The goal of this proposal is to define protocols to generate expandable, self-renewing human muscle stem cells (MuSC) from hiPS cells for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy disease modeling and…
Modulating Liver Sinusoidal Endothelial Cell Permeability to Enhance Engraftment of Endothelial Cell Progenitors for the Treatment of Hemophilia A
Research Objective We aim to demonstrate that regulators of endothelial cell permeability can foster engraftment of endothelial cell progenitors in the liver sinusoids leading to production of Factor VIII. Impact…
Identification of stem cell surface markers as potential therapeutic targets for advanced prostate cancer
Research Objective The goal of this proposal is to identify proteins found on the surface of both human prostate stem cells and cancer cells that could be used as potential…
Novel Platforms to Enhance In Vivo Delivery of Skeletal Muscle Progenitor Cells from Human Pluripotent Stem Cells
Research Objective Delivery of muscle stem cells presents a major roadblock for therapy. We explore novel approaches to increase the efficiency of delivering and monitoring muscle stem cells derived from…
Organoid Modeling of Human Cortical Microcircuits
Research Objective The proposed studies will develop three-dimensional cell culture methods for creating human brain neural circuits for disease research and drug discovery. Impact The proposed research will develop a…
Blood Brain Barrier (BBB)-on-Chip: Development and validation of a novel iPS-based microfluidic model of the human BBB
Research Objective to develop and systematically characterize a novel model of the human BBB using a microfluidic device (chip) and cells derived from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). Impact The…
Generation of bile duct-competent transplantable human liver organoids
Research Objective Generation of human stem cell-derived mini livers capable of exporting bile into the gallbladder after transplantation into the liver Impact Mini livers capable of normal bile export would…
Genome editing for causation and reversion of MPN-associated mutations in human hematopoietic stem cells
Research Objective Use gene editing to create tools for the study of mechanisms by which patient-observed mutations lead to myeloproliferative neoplasms. Impact Editing reagents will yield new insight into how…
