Cultivating a pluripotent stem cell in a medium comprising at least one member selected from the group consisting of ethanolamine, an ethanolamine analog, and a s pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and which is substantially free of -mercaptoethanol or contains -mercaptoethanol at a concentration of not more than 9 M, and the like, is effective for the proliferation of a pluripotent stem cell while maintaining an undifferentiated state.

The present invention relates to the production and culture of undifferentiated spermatogonial stem cells that can be maintained long term and are feeder free. The resultant feeder-free populations can be used in any of a number of protocols including the generation of progeny bulls. The present invention includes novel methods required for the successful enrichment of bovine spermatogonial stem cells, novel cell lines and other components used for the same, as well as the resultant stem cell compositions.

A pharmaceutical active ingredient for cell differentiation to alleviate cell and cell-related deficiencies in mammals comprising porous silica containing a releasable agent capable of contributing to a cell environment conducive for stem cell differentiation in co-implanted stem cells and/or in endogenous stem cells.

Disclosed are novel calcium release-activated calcium (CRAC) channel inhibitors, methods for preparing them, pharmaceutical compositions containing them, and methods of treatment using them. The present disclosure also relates to methods for treating non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with CRAC inhibitors, and to methods for identifying therapeutics for treating and of diagnosing cancer.

Methods of generating cell lines with a sequence variation or copy number variation of a gene of interest, methods of use thereof, and cell lines with a sequence variation or copy number variation of a gene of interest are provided.

The present disclosure encompasses methods for priming an allogeneic cultured keratinocyte composition for topical use.

The invention relates to a cell sheet construct for neurovascular reconstruction. The cell sheet construct has a vascular endothelial cell layer and a neural stem cell layer, and the two layers are physically in direct contact with each other, where the vascular endothelial cell layer forms branching vasculatures, and the neural stem cell layer differentiates into neurons. The invention also relates to a method for manufacturing the cell sheet construct, having the following steps: culturing vascular endothelial cells on a substrate to form a vascular endothelial cell layer, seeding neural stem cells on the vascular endothelial cell layer to make the neural stem cells be physically in direct contact with the vascular endothelial cell layer, and culturing the neural stem cells and the vascular endothelial cell layer to differentiate into neurons and branching vasculatures to form a cell sheet construct.

The disclosure provides methods to genetically engineer granulocyte-macrophage progenitors (GMPs) to express a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR), and uses thereof, including for cancer immunotherapy.

The present invention relates to animal protein-free cell culture media comprising polyamines and a plant- and/or yeast-derived hydrolysate. The invention also relates to animal protein-free culturing processes, wherein cells can be cultivated, propagated and passaged without adding supplementary animal proteins in the culture medium. These processes are useful in cultivating cells, such as recombinant cells or cells infected with a virus, and for producing biological products by cell culture processes.

The present invention provides a compounded cell culture medium powder formulation comprising: a basal medium powder and a cell culture media supplement, wherein the cell culture media supplement comprises and one or more salts; one or more growth factors; one or more inorganic ions; an amino acid supplement comprising one or more of asparagine, glutamine, histidine, and serine; one or more buffers; and one or more anti-foaming agents. The invention further provides methods of making a compounded cell culture medium powder formulation methods of making a cell culture medium for growing mammalian cells and methods of producing a protein of interest by culturing cells in the cell culture medium and isolating the protein of interest.
