Abstract:

Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are reprogrammed from somatic cells, which is similar to embryonic stem cells with the capable of infinite self-renewal and differentiation into various types of cells. The iPSCs have been widely used in the pathogenesis of human disease modeling, drug development and regenerative medicine. Vascular diseases with high morbidity and mortality are often associated with the dysfunction of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) and endothelial cells (ECs) . Establishment of patient-specific iPSCs and the derived-SMCs or ECs can provide an important cellular model for studying the pathogenesis of vascular diseases, as well as drug screening. In addition, the development and application of 3-Dimensions (3D) culture and other technologies can also simulate to generate the 3D constructs, such as organoid, organ on chip, and disease modeling. The purpose of this review is to introduce the generation of iPSCs, the differentiation methods of SMCs and ECs from iPSCs, as well as their applications and challenges in the pathogenesis of the various vascular diseases.

Key words: iPSCs, Reprogramming, SMCs, EC, Differentiation, 3D models, Disease modeling
