Use of Non-modified RNAs for the Derivation of Clinically-relevant iPS Cell Lines from Human Blood, Urine and Skin Cells using GMP-compliant Reagents
We have developed protocols using our StemRNA-NM Reprogramming Kit for generating iPS cells from skin-derived fibroblasts, blood-derived EPCs, and urine-derived UDCs using GMP-compatible reagents (NutriStem medium, iMatrix-511 recombinant laminin). These protocols generate GMP-compatible stem cells without the use of feeders, conditioned medium, additional small molecules or proteins, or passaging during reprogramming.

CRISPR-Cas9 Genome Editing Utilizing Chemically Synthesized RNA
CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing using synthetic crRNA:tracrRNA or sgRNA is highly efficient and easy to use. Synthetic crRNA:tracrRNA is uniquely suited to in vitro and in vivo applications, in particular, DNA-free approach with Cas9 mRNA. Chemical synthesis of guide RNAs allows accurate and rapid production of arrayed crRNA libraries for high-confidence, loss-of-function screens.

Assessment of the Anti-angiogenic Effect of VEGFR2 siRNA in Clonetics™ HUVEC using the Lonza 4D-Nucleofector™ System
In the current study we have used siRNA targeting VEGFR2 as an example to study knockdown of VEGFR2 and subsequent inhibition of tube formation by HUVECs on Growth Factor Reduced Matrigel™ in a 96-well plate format. The same strategy can be used for screening and validating siRNA based inhibitors of the angiogenic process in vitro and thus could be of utility in anti-cancer screening strategies.

iPSC-Derived Cardiomyocytes and Luciferase Reporters: A Robust Reporting Platform for Monitoring Cardioprotection and Pathway Biology in Endogenous Human Tissue Cells
Pathophysiological conditions, medical interventions, and off-target toxicities can all result in cellular oxidative stress. In cardiac myocytes, prolonged and/or excessive oxidative stress can lead to cardiotoxicity: a primary cause of developmental delays, black-box warnings, and post-launch withdrawal of pharmaceuticals.
