Stem Cells: Potential for Therapy
Replacement parts needed for
transplantation or tissue reconstruction
Tissue Engineering
PROBLEM
Replacement parts needed for
transplantation or tissue reconstruction
Tissue Engineering
Solution: STEM CELLS
Stem Cells
Stem cells are potentially immortal cells capable of self-renewal and also give rise to differentiated cells
No area of research since gene therapy has evoked so much enthusiasm and hope
Stem cells are body ‘master cells’ Differ from mature cells which are fully committedStem cells are thus reserve supply of replacement cells that multiply when needed Formed at conception & gradually become specialized Our body retains stem cell reserves in various organs to replace diseased tissue As the stem cell reserve gets depleted, we succumb to diseases, disorders and process of aging
Embryonic Stem Cells
Longer life span, almost ‘immortal’
High degree of plasticity – Pluripotent
Easier to isolate and cultivate
Limitless supply of cells in culture
More genetic stability
Ethical issues
Form teratomas
Will face immune rejection

Adult Stem Cells Embryonic Stem Cells IPS
Induced pluripotent stem cells ?
iPS cells are a type of pluripotent stem cell from an adult somatic cell, by inducing a "forced" expression of certain genes.
iPS cells believed to be identical to natural pluripotent stem cells, such as embryonic stem cell in many respects, such as
• the expression of certain stem cell genes and proteins, • chromatin methylation patterns, • embryoid body formation, • teratomas formation,• viable chimera formation, • potency and, • differentiability.

SOX2This intron less gene encodes a member of the SRY-related HMG-box (SOX) family of transcription factors involved in the regulation of embryonic development and in the determination of cell fate.
MYCThe protein encoded by this gene is a multifunctional, nuclear phosphoprotein that plays a role in cell cycle progression, apoptosis and cellular transformation. It functions as a transcription factor that regulates transcription of specific target genes. Mutations, overexpression, rearrangement and translocation of this gene have been associated with a variety of hematopoietic tumors
KLF4 Kruppel-like factor 4 Klf4 functions upstream of Nanog in ES cell self-renewal and in preventing ES cell differentiation. Klf4 interacts directly with Oct4 and Sox2 when expressed at levels sufficient to induce induced pluripotent stem cells
OCT4 (POU class 5 homeobox 1)This gene encodes a transcription factor containing a POU homeodomain. This transcription factor plays a role in embryonic development, especially during early embryogenesis, and it is necessary for embryonic stem cell pluripotency
• New tools for studying development• Development of disease models• Novel cell-based therapies
Patient specific iPS lines could overcome problem of immune rejection• Avoid most ethical considerations

Why are iPS Cells Useful?
FIRST STEM CELL CLINICAL TRIAL APPROVED BY FDA
Food and Drug Administration (FDA) had approved the first-ever clinical trial of stem cell therapy on human subjects, in 2009.
The trial, funded by the biotech company Geron, was to test a procedure to repair spinal cord damage.
The therapy involves the injection of precursor cells into the spine, where the cells will then differentiate into oligodendrocytes, the cells type that sheathes and protects the nerves of the spinal cord.
