Animal Cell Biotechnology Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that studies technologies for regenerative medicine and drug discovery support using human iPS cells and somatic stem cells.

AboutAbout the lab
Stem cell technology supporting regenerative medicine and drug discovery.
Prof. Ito's lab studies foundational technologies that support regenerative medicine, using human iPS cells and somatic stem cells.
Its research topics include technologies for quality control, large-scale culture, and induction of differentiation of stem cells and other cells, as well as technologies for drug discovery support that draw on knowledge from regenerative medicine.
The lab also lists developmental biology among its research topics, using model organisms to clarify the mechanisms by which various organs form and regenerate.
Prof. Ito is listed as a faculty member in a research field of the graduate school's Degree Programs in Biology and Biological Resource Sciences (Master's program) and Life Science Innovation (Doctoral program).
Key terms
- Microphysiological system
- A mechanism that creates a miniature environment mimicking human physiology
ResearchResearch themes
Prof. Ito studies foundational technologies for regenerative medicine using human iPS cells and somatic stem cells, as well as technologies for drug discovery support that apply regenerative medicine techniques. For drug discovery support, the research topics include differentiation into cells of various organs for drug discovery, using knowledge from regenerative medicine, and microphysiological systems. In the graduate school, the professor is in charge of the Advanced Cell Biology field in the Degree Program in Biology, and the Animal Cell Biotechnology research field in the Degree Programs in Biological Resource Sciences and Life Science Innovation.
