20140286863 | Complexation of Fatty Acid-Conjugated Molecules with Albumin - The present disclosure relates generally to novel methods and compositions for using engineered reprogramming factor(s) for the creation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) through a kinetically controlled process. Specifically, this disclosure relates to establishing combinations of reprogramming factors, including fusions between conventional reprogramming factors with transactivation domains, optimized for reprogramming various types of cells. More specifically, the exemplary methods disclosed herein can be used for creating induced pluripotent stem cells from various mammalian cell types, including human fibroblasts. Exemplary methods of feeder-free derivation of human induced pluripotent stem cells using synthetic messenger RNA are also disclosed. | 09-25-2014 |
20100272644 | COMPLEXATION OF FATTY ACID-CONJUGATED MOLECULES WITH ALBUMIN - The technology described herein is directed to conjugating various therapeutic or functional molecules, such small chemical drugs, peptides, oligonucleotides, isotopes and imaging regents with fatty acids, such as LCFAs. The fatty acid-conjugated molecules are complexed with a human serum albumin protein in vitro. | 10-28-2010 |
