Anticipation of a Novel Gene Therapy Inspired by a Concept of iPS Cells

Fumiaki Uchiumi and Sei-ichi Tanuma

This year Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine was dedicated to two researches who have established and developed the study in the field of stem cells. At present, there seems to be still several problems to have to overcome before applying the techniques with iPS (induced pluripotent stem) cells to the practical use in the medical treatments. However, the concept of the iPS cells has brought a great hope not only in medicine, especially in regenerative therapies, but also in the development of new drugs. Here, from the point of view of medicine, we propose an another possibility to apply the concept of iPS cells to the new therapy of diseases, such as cancer.
