Clinical study of HAES transplantation in patients with neonatal onset urea cycle disorder

General Information

Summary HAES is derived from human ES cells and directed to differentiate to cells with ammonia metabolism capacity. HAES transplantation is expected as an effective bridging therapy to liver transplantation for patients with urea cycle disorder. This study is conducted to assess the safety and efficacy of HAES transplantation for the neonatal onset patients who have difficulty in instant liver transplantation surgery due to low body weight (6 kg or less).

Cells

Which differentiated cell type is used
Label hepatocyte
Link http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/CL_0000182
Description The main structural component of the liver. They are specialized epithelial cells that are organized into interconnected plates called lobules. Majority of cell population of liver, polygonal in shape, arranged in plates or trabeculae between sinusoids; may have single nucleus or binucleated.; Hepatocytes are reportedly MHC Class I-positive and MHC Class II-positive.
