Human primed pluripotent stem cells are capable of generating all the embryonic lineages. However, their extraembryonic trophectoderm potentials are limited. It remains unclear how to expand their developmental potential to trophectoderm lineages.

On Earth, iron is abundant, bioavailable, and crucial for initiating the first catalytic reactions of life from prokaryotes to plants to mammals. Iron-complexed proteins are critical to biological pathways and essential cellular functions. While it is well known that the regulation of iron is necessary for mammalian development, little is known about the timeline of how specific transcripts network and interact in response to cellular iron regulation to shape cell fate, function, and plasticity in the developing embryo and beyond.

Late-onset hypogonadism (LOH) syndrome is characterized by age-related testosterone deficiency and negatively affects the quality of life of older men. A promising therapeutic approach for LOH syndrome is transplantation of testosterone-producing Leydig-like cells (LLCs) derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs). However, previous studies have encountered obstacles, such as limited cell longevity, insufficient testosterone production, and inefficiency of differentiation.

During gastrulation, Wnt-β-catenin signaling dictates lineage bifurcation generating different mesoderm cell types. However, the specific role of Wnt receptors in mesoderm specification remains elusive. Using selective Frizzled (FZD) and LRP5/6 antibody-based agonists, we examined FZD receptors' function during directed mesoderm differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs).

Long COVID, or post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection, leads to vascular dysfunction, which contributes to the chronic multi-organ damage often seen in affected patients. Long COVID, a global health concern is associated with increased thrombotic risk, also known as COVID-19-associated coagulopathy (CAC). Here, we derived an induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of a long COVID patient.
