HOSTEP proposal development
Southeast Asia Biotechnology center/Hoa Lac Stem cell group and Biotalentum Ltd, Hungary signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) on study on using stem cell based models to screen anti-tumor active substances from Vietnamese medicinal plants
Both parties agree to conduct and promote research activities to (1) establish stem-cell based models for drug screening including using the human glioblastoma cells for anticancer screening and using human induced pluripotent stem (iPSC)-derived Neuronal Stem cells (iPSC-NPC) and neurons for neurotoxicity screening, (2) apply the developed model for screening chemical compounds extracted and purified from Vietnamese medicinal natural resources with anticancer potential, (3) study the methods of transformation of IPSCs into glioblastoma (stem) cells, and (4) develop scientific plans for further applications of stem cell based models in pharmaceutical industry including patent application, publication of research results, training and transfer of technology.
A stem-cell research consortium comprising HSC, Lung Lo 51 JSC, the National Institute of Hematology and Blood Transfusion (NIHBT), Hanoi Ngan Nam JSC, Hanoi Medical University (HMU), and 108 Military Central Hospital has entered into an agreement for collaborative scientific, technological, and innovative development cooperation
HSC takes the leading role in initiating and designing a project focused on 3D stem cell culturing.
