This report explains briefly the minutes of a 1-day workshop entitled; "human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) and good manufacturing practice (GMP)" held by Stem Cell Biology Research Center based in Yazd Reproductive Sciences Institute at Shahid Sadoughi University of Medical Sciences, Yazd, Iran on 27 April 2017. In this workshop, in addition to the practical sessions, Prof. Harry D. Moore from Centre for Stem Cell Biology, University of Sheffield, UK presented the challenges and the importance of the biotechnology of clinical-grade human embryonic stem cells from first derivation to robust defined culture for therapeutic applications.

Cancer-associated muscle wasting is associated with poor clinical outcomes, but its underlying biology is largely uncharted in humans. Unbiased analysis of the RNAome (coding and non-coding RNAs) with unsupervised clustering using integrative non-negative matrix factorization provides a means of identifying distinct molecular subtypes and was applied here to muscle of patients with colorectal or pancreatic cancer. Rectus abdominis biopsies from 84 patients were profiled using high-throughput next-generation sequencing.

A complex assortment of neuronal cells contributes to distinct functional circuits in the human brain. Such diversity is imposed upon pluripotent stem cells by a patterning process that begins much before the start of neurogenesis. Neural tube patterning relies on morphogens-diffusible signals that regulate transcription factor networks in progenitor cells, guiding spatial and temporal identity formation.

Cortical interneuron deficiencies, particularly involving the somatostatin (SST) subtypes, contribute to neurological and neuropsychiatric disorders. These interneurons are difficult to derive in vitro from human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) due to their late embryonic development and dependence on glial interaction. To this end, we developed a three-dimensional co-culture model of hESC-derived neurons, enabling long-term development, functional maturity, and neuron-glial interaction.

Defective wounds pose health risks, and treatment is challenging. Umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells (UCMSCs) show promise for healing. Primary UCMSCs were isolated and extracted in vitro, and the proliferation and differentiation characteristics were detected by flow cytometry and trilineage differentiation, and a 3D spherical cell culture was performed.
