Stem Cell Center
Stammzellen sind einzigartig in ihrer Fähigkeit, sich zu vermehren und Zellen zu ersetzen - oft lebenslang. Viele erwachsene Organe, wie das Gehirn oder die Bauchspeicheldrüse, haben jedoch keine oder nur wenige Stammzellen. Die Mission unseres Departments stützt sich in solchen Organen auf unseren bahnbrechenden Ansatz zur Umprogrammierung lokaler Zellen in Richtung der verlorenen Zelltyp-Identität sowie auf unsere bahnbrechenden Entdeckungen zu epigenetischen Mechanismen der Umprogrammierung. Für alle Schlüsselproteine, die eine solche Umwandlung des Zellschicksals ermöglichen, wurden die Rollen während der Entwicklung zur Bildung von relevanten Zelltypen identifiziert. Unser Department vereint daher Fachwissen in einer weltweit einzigartigen Kombination über Stammzellen, Entwicklungsmechanismen der Schicksalsspezifikation und Plastizität, einschließlich einer starken epigenetischen Expertise mit Verletzungsmodellen und direkter Reprogrammierung.
Stem Cell Center
Replacing lost or damaged cells is the cornerstone of regenerative medicine. To achieve this, we need to understand not only how cells acquire their specific identity but also how cell plasticity is regulated. Helmholtz Munich’s Stem Cell Center is unique worldwide in combining leading expertise in cell plasticity, epigenetics, and direct reprogramming.
