Application of iPS cell technology to cancer epigenome study: uncovering the mechanism of cell status conversion for drug resistance in tumor.

abstract：:Circulating leukocytes, particularly neutrophils and monocytes, are important effector cells in the induction of many forms of glomerulonephritis. Adhesion molecules, especially selectins, are also thought to be critical for the development of this disease. We examined the possible suppressive effect of soluble E-sele...
