GENERATION OF PANCREATIC ENDODERM FROM PLURIPOTENT STEM CELLS USING SMALL MOLECULES
摘要
A method of producing pancreatic cells or pancreatic cell precursors expressing at least 5% PDX1/NKX6.1 double positive, comprising exposing definitive endoderm cells to an effective amount of one or more small molecules, to differentiate the human definitive endoderm cells into the pancreatic cells or pancreatic cell precursors. The present invention also relates to pancreatic endoderm cells produced by said methods and uses of said pancreatic endoderm cells.
