## Abstract The derivation of embryonic stem cells (hESC) from human embryos a decade ago started a new era in perspectives for cell therapy as well as understanding human development and disease. More recently, reprogramming of somatic cells to an embryonic stem cellβlike state (induced pluripoten

## Abstract Pluripotent stem cellβderived cardiomyocytes (PSCβCMs) are a potentially unlimited source of cardiomyocytes (CMs) for cardiac transplantation therapies. The establishment of pure PSCβCM populations is important for this application, but is hampered by a lack of CMβspecific surface marke
Orthotropic liver transplantation is the only established treatment for end-stage liver diseases. Utilization of hepatocyte transplantation and bio-artificial liver devices as alternative therapeutic approaches requires an unlimited source of hepatocytes.

## Abstract Induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells derived from terminally differentiated human fibroblasts are reprogrammed to possess stem cell like properties. However, the extent to which iPS cells exhibit unique properties of the human embryonic stem (hES) cell cycle remains to be established. h
