Identification of transcription factors that promote the differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells into lacrimal gland epithelium-like cells

Regenerative medicine: lacrimal gland epithelium in vitro One possible approach to treat dry eye diseases is to transplant lacrimal glands generated in vitro from human embryonic stem cells into patients. As a first step, we developed a novel method to generate lacrimal gland epithelium-like cells....
