Accelerated differentiation of human induced pluripotent stem cells to blood–brain barrier endothelial cells

Accelerated differentiation of human induced pluripotent stem cells to blood–brain barrier endothelial cells

Abstract Background Due to their ability to limitlessly proliferate and specialize into almost any cell type, human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) offer an unprecedented opportunity to generate human brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMECs), which compose the blood–brain barrier (BBB),...
