CD44 is a negative cell surface marker for pluripotent stem cell identification during human fibroblast reprogramming.

Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are promising tools for disease research and cell therapy. One of the critical steps in establishing iPSC lines is the early identification of fully reprogrammed colonies among unreprogrammed fibroblasts and partially reprogrammed intermediates. Currently, colo...
