© 2018 The Authors Background & Aims: α1-Antitrypsin deficiency (A1ATD) is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in the SERPINA1 gene. Individuals with the Z variant (Gly342Lys) retain polymerised protein in the endoplasmic reticulum (E...

Directed differentiation of human induced pluripotent stem cells into functional cholangiocyte-like cells (2017)
Journal Article
Sampaziotis, F., de Brito, M. C., Geti, I., Bertero, A., Hannan, N. R., & Vallier, L. (2017). Directed differentiation of human induced pluripotent stem cells into functional cholangiocyte-like cells. Nature Protocols, 12(4), 814-827. https://doi.org/10.1038/nprot.2017.011

The difficulty in isolating and propagating functional primary cholangiocytes is a major limitation in the study of biliary disorders and the testing of novel therapeutic agents. To overcome this problem, we have developed a platform for the differen... Read More about Directed differentiation of human induced pluripotent stem cells into functional cholangiocyte-like cells.
