Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method that includes bringing a nuclear reprogramming substance (DLX4 gene, OCT3/4 gene, and SOX2 gene) into contact with a cell and thereby producing iPS cells.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . A method for producing induced pluripotent stem cells, comprising: bringing a nuclear reprogramming substance including at least a DLX4 gene or a translation product thereof into contact with a cell. 2 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the nuclear reprogramming substance further includes a gene in an OCT family or a translation product thereof, and a gene in an SOX family or a translation product thereof. 3 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the nuclear reprogramming substance further includes a gene in a KLF4 family or a translation product thereof. 4 . The method according to claim 2 , wherein the nuclear reprogramming substance further includes a gene in a KLF4 family or a translation product thereof. 5 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the cell comprises a pulp cell. 6 . The method according to claim 2 , wherein the cell comprises a pulp cell. 7 . The method according to claim 5 , wherein the pulp cell comprises a pulp cell before a stage of completion of tooth root formation. 8 . The method according to claim 6 , wherein the pulp cell comprises a pulp cell before a stage of completion of tooth root formation. 9 . A vector set used for the method according to claim 1 , comprising one or two or more recombinant vectors which retains a DLX4 gene, an OCT3/4 gene and an SOX2 gene. 10 . An induced pluripotent stem cell production agent comprising the vector set according to claim 9 . 11 . iPS cells produced by the vector set according to claim 9 . 12 . An agent used for the method according to claim 1 , including a pulp cell before a stage of completion of tooth root formation and a nuclear reprogramming substance including at least a DLX4 gene or a translation product thereof. 13 . An induced pluripotent stem cell production agent comprising a DLX4 gene or a translation product thereof. 14 . A method for reprogramming a cell nucleus, comprising: bringing a nuclear reprogramming substance including a DLX4 gene, an OCT3/4 gene and an SOX2 gene or a translation product thereof into contact with a cell. 15 . The method according to claim 1 , where the bringing comprises bringing a nuclear reprogramming substance including a DLX4 gene, an OCT3/4 gene and an SOX2 gene or a translation product thereof into contact with a cell.
