Dr Shunichiro Miyoshi established a line of endometrium-derived mesenchymal cells (EMCs) with a life span prolonged by a cell-cycle mediated gene. The EMCs began spontaneously beating after induction and showed cardiomyocyte-specific action potentials.

A major challenge in developing stem cell-based cures for disease is maturing those cells into adult cell types that can be used for transplantation or to study human disease.

Mark Mercola: Differentiating embryonic stem cells into adult tissues

Marrow-derived human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) have short proliferative longevity, compared with embryonic stem cells, and thus, important challenge in regenerative medicine is to improve the replicative capacity of human hMSCs. The life span of hMSCs have successfully been prolonged by bmi-1, which reduces p16INK4a expression and is essential for self-renewal of hematopoietic stem cells. The hMSCs with a prolonged life span began spontaneously beating, exhibited having action potential of cardiomyocytes, and acquired automaticity

Stem Cell Research: Beyond Hype, Real Hope by the Family Research Council (www.frc.org). This public domain film is consistent with the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church, which state that the ablation of the inner cell mass (ICM) of the blastocyst, which critically and irremediably damages the human embryo, curtailing its development, is a gravely immoral act and consequently is gravely illicit. No end believed to be good, such as the use of stem cells for the preparation of other differentiated cells to be used in what look to be promising therapeutic procedures, can justify an intervention of this kind.
