Culture Conditions in Which Stem Cells Are Grown Affects Their Genetic Stability

The culture conditions in which stem cells are grown and mass-produced can affect their genetic stability, revealed researchers at University of California, San Diego School of Medicine, with collaborators from The Scripps Research Institute (TSRI). Co-corresponding author Louise Laurent said, "Since genetic and epigenetic instability are associated with cancers, we worry that similar alterations in stem cells may affect their safety in therapeutic transplants. ...
