The importance of telomere telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) during iPS cell induction has been elucidated
- hopes of elucidating the molecular mechanisms underlying
iPS cell differentiation induction and cancer suppression - In a collaborative study with Assistant Professor Tsuyoshi Nagamatsu's research group in the Department of Human Genome Stem Cell Medicine, Applied Stem Cell and Medical Sciences, Graduate School of Medical Sciences, Kyushu University, we have elucidated the importance of telomere telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) during iPS cell induction.
This research result will lead to an understanding of the mechanism behind iPS cell establishment and the establishment of an efficient method for its establishment.
In this collaborative research, the Opto Data Science Laboratory was responsible for DNA microarray data analysis and data statistical analysis.
