Background: The potential of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) in revolutionizing regenerative medicine cannot be overstated. iPSCs offer a profound opportunity for therapies involving cell replacement, disease modeling, and cell transplantation. However, the widespread application of iPSC cellular therapy faces hurdles, including the imperative to regulate iPSC differentiation rigorously and the inherent genetic disparities among individuals. To address these challenges, the concept of iPSC super donors emerges, holding exceptional genetic attributes and advantageous traits. These super donors serve as a wellspring of standardized, high-quality cell sources, mitigating inter-individual variations and augmenting the efficacy of therapy.
Methods: In pursuit of this goal, our study embarked on the establishment of iPSC cell lines specifically sourced from donors possessing the HLA type (A33:03-B58:01-DRB1*03:01). The reprogramming process was meticulously executed, resulting in the successful generation of iPSC lines from these carefully selected donors. Subsequently, an extensive characterization was conducted to comprehensively understand the features and attributes of these iPSC lines.
Results: The outcomes of our research were highly promising. The reprogramming efforts culminated in the generation of iPSC lines from donors with the specified HLA type. These iPSC lines displayed a range of distinctive characteristics that were thoroughly examined and documented. This successful generation of iPSC lines from super donors possessing advantageous genetic traits represents a significant stride towards the realization of their potential in therapeutic applications.
Conclusion: In summary, our study marks a crucial milestone in the realm of regenerative medicine. The establishment of iPSC lines from super donors with specific HLA types signifies a paradigm shift in addressing challenges related to iPSC cellular therapy. The standardized and high-quality cell sources derived from these super donors hold immense potential for various therapeutic applications. As we move forward, these findings provide a solid foundation for further research and development, ultimately propelling the field of regenerative medicine toward new horizons of efficacy and accessibility.

Objective: To compare early patency and outcomes of single outflow (SOT) and double outflow (DOT) reconstruction in right lobe living donor liver transplantation (RtLDLT) in a multicenter open-labelled randomized controlled trial.
Summary Background Data: Optimum graft venous outflow is a key factor in determining outcomes of RtLDLT. There is no data directly comparing SOT and DOT technique of graft outflow reconstruction.

Background: Urinary tract calculi (UTC) in patients awaiting living donor liver transplant (LDLT) requires proper management due to increased risk of infections in the post-liver transplant (LT) period.
Materials And Methods: A retrospective analysis of records of LDLT recipients with UTC was conducted between July 2019 and July 2023. No prisoners or paid participants were included.

The incorporation a "singlet oxygen (O) battery" into photodynamic therapy (PDT) could overcome the deficiency of tumor hypoxia in PDT and enhance its effect. However, real-time monitoring the O release efficiency of the O battery still presents a significant challenge in vivo. To address this issue, we have developed a bright aggregation-induced emission (AIE) chemiluminescence (CL) probe (DTLum), which conjugates a luminol unit with a donor-acceptor structured diketopyrrolopyrrole fluorophore, for the specific detection of O.
