| Starting from an RNA interference (RNAi) screen of RNA helicases, investigators identified that eIF4A3, a DEAD-box helicase component of the exon junction complex, was essential for the maintenance of ESCs. [Nucleic Acids Research] |

|
| Synthetic gene circuits with sense-and-respond capabilities were designed to detect cell states and perform cell-state-specific control of desired protein expression in hPSCs. [Molecular Systems Biology] |
|
|
|
| Six different auxetic polyurethane foams with different elastic modulus and Poisson’s ratio were used to investigate lineage specification of hiPSCs. [Advanced Healthcare Materials] |
|
|
|
| Researchers showed that BNIP3-dependent mitophagy protected genomic integrity in mESCs. Deletion of Bnip3 increased cellular reactive oxygen species and decreased ATP generation. [Cell Death & Disease] |
|
|
|
| Scientists showed that hiPSCs and hiPSC-derived ectodermal, mesodermal, and endodermal cells were susceptible to Influenza A virus (IAV) infection. These cell types stained positive for α2,6-linked sialic acid, the receptor for IAV infection expressed on the cell surface. [Virus Research] |

|
|
| During retinoic acid-mediated differentiation of mESCs, autophagy was induced, and the Polycomb group histone methyl transferase EZH2 was identified as a regulator of this process. [The FEBS Journal] |
|
|
|
| The authors showed that naïve PSCs depleted of β-catenin remained dependent on XAV939. XAV939 prevented trophectoderm induction by reducing activation of YAP. [Development] |
|
|
|
| Investigators generated hESCs lacking retinoblastoma tumor suppressor (RB) family proteins by introducing frameshift mutations in RBL1 and RBL2 genes using the CRISPR/Cas9 technology, and then integrating the short hairpin RNA-expression cassette to knockdown RB upon tetracycline treatment.

|
|
| 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase isoenzyme expressions were analyzed in R1 and J1 mESCs that were cultured in the presence and absence of leukemia inhibitory factor. [Cytotechnology] |
|
|
|
|
| The authors review the state of the art of the use of PSCs as a model for hematopoietic and leukemia development. [Stem Cells Translational Medicine] |
|
|
|
| Scientists summarize the iPSC modeling approach of Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, as well as outline typical mitochondrial dysfunction and recapitulate corresponding therapeutic strategies. [Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology] |

| Prepaireâ„¢ Labs and Ncardia announced the signing of a 5-year agreement. The potential outcome of this partnership will accelerate aspects of drug discovery and development, including target discovery, lead optimization, toxicity assessment, and trial design. [Prepaire (EIN Presswire)] |
