The demonstration that pluripotent stem cells could be generated by somatic cell reprogramming led to wonder if these so-called induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells would extend our investigation capabilities in the cancer research field.... more
Ischemic heart disease is the leading cause of global mortality, and cardiovascular diseases represent a major challenge for researchers because of the overall health complications associated with them. Numerous studies have shown that it... more
In 1998, the Council for Science and Technology established the Bioethics Committee and asked its members to examine the ethical and legal aspects of human cloning. The Committee concluded in 1999 that human cloning should be prohibited,... more
Despite several decades of extensive research efforts, there is yet no single permanent cell line available from marine invertebrates as these cells stop dividing in vitro within 24–72 h after their isolation, starting cellular... more
Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) have numerous applications in livestock to improve production traits, disease resistance, biopharming, conservation of germplasm, disease modeling, regenerative medicine etc. Here, we have described... more
The international political sociology (IPS) of risk is generally concerned with understanding the governance of uncertainty. As economists Bodie and Merton (1999) have classically described it, risk is uncertainty that matters. Risk is a... more
This article attempts to elucidate how moral complicity arguments of human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) research imply for the research in Japan. After the first chapter describes the background and purpose of this article, the... more
The Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 (IBC) is considered as the major structural legal reform in India. It is making a robust Indian economy by reducing the amount of Non-Performing Assets and improving Ease of Doing Business (EoDB)... more
Adenylate kinases (AKs) are phosphotransferases that regulate the cellular adenine nucleotide composition and play a critical role in the energy homeostasis of all tissues. The AK2 isoenzyme is expressed in the mitochondrial intermembrane... more
One of the most common diseases of the pancreas is diabetes mellitus. The current treatment of exogenous insulin supply is not fully capable of achieving tight control of glucose regulation, leading to long-term complications. Hence,... more
Clinical usefulness of embrionic and iPS cells. iPS cells appears to have more ethical and medical advantages. At present, treatments with human adult stem cells have been found to be most clinically useful for therapeutic... more
Somatic cells have been reprogrammed into induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells that recapitulate the pluripotent nature of embryonic stem (ES) cells. Reduced pluripotency and variable differentiation capacities have hampered progress with... more
