In vitro and in vivo differentiation of induced pluripotent stem cells generated from urine-derived cells into cardiomyocytes
Generation of human cardiomyocytes from cells derived from various sources, including skin biopsy, has been made possible by breakthrough advances in stem cell research. However, it is attractive to build up a negligibly invasive way to create induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells. In this study, we...

Generation of human cardiomyocytes from cells derived from various sources, including skin biopsy, has been made possible by breakthrough advances in stem cell research. However, it is attractive to build up a negligibly invasive way to create induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells. In this study, we created iPS cells from human urine-derived epithelial cells by gene transduction using lentiviral vectors in a totally noninvasive manner. Then, we induced the differentiation of iPS cells into functional cardiomyocytes both in vitro and in vivo. Action potentials were recorded in putative cardiomyocytes and spontaneous beating cells were observed. Our results offered an alternative method to generate cardiomyocytes in a totally noninvasive manner from an easily accessible source. The availability of urine and its potent reprogramming characteristics will provide opportunities for the use of cells with specific genotypes to study the pathogenesis and molecular mechanisms of disease in vitro. |
