Regenerative medicine advance: New 'cocktails' support long-term maintenance of human embryonic stem cells

Tuesday, January 25, 2011 - 15:30 in Biology & Nature

A team of stem cell biologists and engineers, using a feedback system control scheme, has innovatively and efficiently identified an optimal combination and concentration of small molecule inhibitors from a very large pool of possibilities to support the long-term maintenance of human embryonic stem cells. This is a major advancement towards the quest to broadly transition regenerative medicine from the bench top to the clinic.
