An object of the present invention is to efficiently establish cells, tissues, and organs capable of serving as donors for treating diseases, without eliciting immune rejection reactions, without starting with an egg cell. This object was achieved by providing a pluripotent stem cell having a desired genome. The cell was produced by treating with a reprogramming agent, producing a fusion cell of an MHC deficient stem cell with a somatic cell, or after producing a fusion cell of a stem cell with a somatic cell, removing a gene derived from the stem cell by performing genetic manipulation with a retrovirus.
本发明的目的是在不引起免疫排斥反应的情况下,不从卵细胞开始,有效地建立能够作为治疗疾病供体的细胞、组织和器官。实现这一目标的方法是提供一种具有所需基因组的多能干细胞。该细胞是通过以下方法产生的:用重编程剂处理,产生 MHC 缺陷干细胞与体细胞的融合细胞,或在产生干细胞与体细胞的融合细胞后,用逆转录病毒进行遗传操作,去除干细胞中的基因。
