Nuclear Factor I genes drive chondrogenic cell-fate commitment
Rick Mulders, Mathew Nickel-Maunu,[...], and Ingrid Meulenbelt | 22-04-2026 | Human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) offer a powerful platform to model chondrogenesis and enable regenerative strategies, yet regulation of cell-fate commitment remains elusive. Here, we systematically mapped cell-fate trajectories from 7 time points during a 49-day chondrogenic hiPSC differentiation protocol using single-nucleus multimodal [...]
Application of human induced pluripotent stem cells for tissue modeling and therapy: are we on track?
Nickel Maunu M, Meulenbelt I, Ramos YFM | 22-07-2026 | Stem cells are key for development of disease modeling and therapies. While promising, however, current application of cutting-edge hiPSC technologies is, among others, confounded by cellular heterogeneity leading to concerns about their suitability for experimental and clinical applications. Variations across donors, tissue sources, methodologies, [...]
