Abstract Government authorities, academies, research institutes and industries are presently hindered by a lack of functional, healthy and standardized human platforms of cells, tissues, and organs, predominantly using costly live animal models and cells of low human relevance. Existing models of live animals or immortalized cell lines of either animal or human origin, often poorly reflect human physiology. Primary human cell cultures are difficult to procure in sufficient quantity and can be prone to much inter-batch variability, depending on the cell source. By contrast, self-renewable, genetically healthy and single-sourced human pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) exhibit enhanced… More >
