Abstract
In this issue, Yano et al.1 present a method to obtain suppressive regulatory T (Treg) cells from human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs). This approach has the potential to address the low Treg cell yields of current ex vivo Treg cell expansion and induction protocols, an unmet challenge for autologous Treg cell treatments.
期刊介绍:
Cell Stem Cell is a comprehensive journal covering the entire spectrum of stem cell biology. It encompasses various topics, including embryonic stem cells, pluripotency, germline stem cells, tissue-specific stem cells, differentiation, epigenetics, genomics, cancer stem cells, stem cell niches, disease models, nuclear transfer technology, bioengineering, drug discovery, in vivo imaging, therapeutic applications, regenerative medicine, clinical insights, research policies, ethical considerations, and technical innovations. The journal welcomes studies from any model system providing insights into stem cell biology, with a focus on human stem cells. It publishes research reports of significant importance, along with review and analysis articles covering diverse aspects of stem cell research.
