Compositions for reprogramming cells into hemogenic and/or hematopoietic stem cell-like cells, methods and uses thereof

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a construct or a vector for reprogramming stem cells, differentiated cells, or mixtures thereof into hemogenic and/or hematopoietic stem cell-like cells, wherein the construct or the vector encodes a peptide comprising a combination of two isolated or synthetic transcription factors, preferably at least three isolated or synthetic transcription factors. The disclosure also relates to a composition comprising said construct or vector, to a method for reprogramming or inducing a stem cell or a differentiated cell into hemogenic and/or hematopoietic stem cell-like cells comprising a step of transducing a cell with at least one of said vectors; to a induced hemogenic and/or hematopoietic stem cell-like cell obtained by said method; to a composition comprising said induced hemogenic and/or hematopoietic stem cell-like cell; and to a kit comprising at least one of the following components: the induced hemogenic and/or hematopoietic stem cell-like cell; the composition as described in any of the previous claims; the vector or the construct as disclosed; or mixtures thereof.
