Nanotechnology in Generation and Biomedical Application of Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells

Abstract

Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) have a tremendous potential in biomedical applications. Nanotechnology has played an essential role on reprogramming iPSCs. In the current review, we will summarize recent progress on application of nanoparticles and other nanotechnology-based platforms in iPSC generation and in study of iPSC biology. We will also highlight the importance of nanotechnology on biomedical application of iPSCs.
