iPS Cells
iPS Cells facility is located in the Arvo building on the Kauppi campus of the University of Tampere. The facility provides services related to iPS cell technology for academic and non-academic clients.
Introduction
Already fully differentiated adult cells can be reprogrammed into pluripotent cells in defined conditions. Reprogrammed cells are called induced pluripotent stem cells, iPS cells, and they can be differentiated into desired cell type, retaining the original genotype. With this technology, it is possible to create patient specific stem cell lines, which provide a way to model and study the pathophysiology of various disorders in human cells. Therefore, iPS cell technology offers a promising and safe platform to screen and optimize patient specific drug therapy.
iPS Cells facility is located in the Arvo building on the Kauppi campus of the Tampere University. The facility provides services related to iPS cell technology for academic and non-academic clients.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
All the users of the iPS Cells facility services are obligated to acknowledge the facility and Biocenter Finland (BF) in publications:
“The authors acknowledge the Biocenter Finland and Tampere facility of iPS Cells for the service.”
This facility is partly supported by the Biocenter Finland technology platform network.
Methods
We have optimized both integrative as well as non-integrative reprogramming methods at the iPS Cells facility. iPS cells can be reprogrammed using either retroviruses or non-viral methods (e.g. episomal vectors). Reprogramming has been optimized for fibroblasts.
The iPS cells have the capacity to differentiate into derivatives from all three germ layers. In defined conditions iPS cells can be differentiated into the cell type of interest including cardiomyocytes, neural cells and hepatocytes.
iPS Cells facility has established novel assays to automatically or semi-automatically analyze the morphology and functionality of cardiomyocytes. The assays include analysis of cell size and orientation, as well as detailed analysis of Ca2+ transients, electrical and beating behavior of the cells. Besides cardiomyocytes, these assays can be applied on many other cell types.

Prices
We make iPS cell lines mainly from PBMCs utilizing Nucleofection and plasmid vectors. Pricing is heavily dependent on the project details and how long the newly produced iPS cell lines are cultured and whether any characterizations are done.
