Methods of Producing Thymic Emigrants from Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells
Abstract: Hematopoietic and pluripotent stem cells can be differentiated into T cells with potential clinical utility. Current approaches for in vitro T cell production rely on Notch signaling and artificial mimicry of thymic selection. However, these approaches result in unconventional or phenotypically aberrant T cells; which may lead to unpredictable...

Efficient Methods to Prepare Hematopoietic Progenitor Cells in vitro for Therapeutic Use
Abstract: Hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPC) are multi-potent hematopoietic lineage cells that can differentiate into any type of blood cell, including but not limited to erythrocytes, T cells, B cells, and natural killer cells. As such, they have high therapeutic potential in the fields of regenerative medicine and cancer immunotherapy, especially...

High-Throughput Generation of Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells Carrying Antigen-Specific T Cell Receptors from Tumor Infiltrated Lymphocytes
Abstract: One form of adoptive T cell therapy (ACT) consists of harvesting tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL), screening and isolating TIL which display tumor antigen-specific T-cell receptors (TCR), expanding the isolated T cells in vitro, and reinfusing them into the patient for treatment. While highly active in the treatment of certain cancers...

In vitro Generation of an Autologous Thymic Organoid from Human Pluripotent Stem Cells
Abstract: The thymus is an integral part of the adaptive immune system as it generates T cells. Its function diminishes rapidly as the body ages, leading to a compromise of the immune system in the elderly. Reconstitution of adaptive immunity through mass production of different T cell types is therefore a therapeutic need in immunocompromised populations....
