Background Theoretically human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) have the capacity to self-renew and differentiate into all human cell types. Therefore, the greatest promise of hESCs-based therapy is to replace the damaged tissues of patients suffering from traumatic or degenerative diseases by the exact same type of cells derived from hESCs. Allograft immune rejection is one of the obstacles for hESCs-based...
Immune rejection hinders the application of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) in transplantation therapy. Human leukocyte antigens (HLAs) on the cell surface are the major cause of graft rejection. In this study, we generated HLA class I-deficient hESCs via disruption of beta 2-microglobulin (β2m), the light chain of HLA Class I. We found that HLA class I proteins were not present on the cell surface...
