Molecular Characterization of hESC and hIPSC-Derived Spinal Motor Neurons
One of the main objectives of stem cell biology is to create physiologically relevant cell types that can be used to either facilitate the study of or directly treat human…
Molecular Characterization and Functional Exploration of Hemogenic Endothelium
Hematopoietic cells are responsible for generating all cell types present in the blood and therefore critical for the provision of oxygen and nutrients to all the tissues in the body.…
Modulating cardiac myosin heavy chain isoform expression for treating cardiomyopathies
Research Objective To discover CRISPR-based genetic strategies that will directly and therapeutically modify cardiac myosin heavy chain isoform expression to treat HF and cardiomyopathies. Impact Heart Failure and Cardiomyopathies Major…
Excitatory spinal interneurons from human pluripotent stem cells to treat spinal cord injury
Research Objective The primary objective of this research is to test whether excitatory human V2a spinal interneurons engineered from PSCs can repair the damaged spinal cord and restore motor function.…
Pluripotent Stem Cells for Tendon Tissue Engineering
Research Objective We propose to develop a bio-tendon engineered from differentiated pluripotent stem cells for the repair of tendon injuries and degeneration. Impact Rotator cuff tears are the most common…
A Novel Therapy for Sanfilippo B
Research Objective To develop a Stem Cell therapy for Sanfilippo B syndrome. Impact There is no treatment for Sanfilippo syndrome, and other therapeutic approaches have failed in clinics. This proposal…
Autologous stem cell-derived interneuron cell therapy for spinal cord injury (SCI)
Research Objective Functional restoration following spinal cord injury using defined excitatory and inhibitory spinal interneuron progenitor cell transplantation Impact The development of a stem cell derived progenitor cell therapy with…
Bioengineering human stem cell-derived beta cell organoids to monitor cell health in real time and improve therapeutic outcomes in patients
Research Objective We will generate nanoprobe-containing stem cell-derived human beta cells that can be monitored in real time in response to inflammatory stress upon transplantation in patients with type 1…
Developing gene therapy for dominant optic atrophy using human pluripotent stem cell-derived retinal organoid disease models
Research Objective We will develop a gene therapy for a major inherited optic nerve disease and test the effectiveness of the treatment by analyzing healthy and patient stem cell-derived mini…
Extending Immune-Evasive Human Islet-Like Organoids (HILOs) Survival and Function as a Cure for T1D
Research Objective Determine optimal islet transplant conditions and systemic treatments that promote graft survival upon transplantation into immune-competent diabetic subjects. Impact Our proposal will optimize the generation and viability of…
