Donor data

• Users do not need any additional license for the use of these differentiated cells even when cells are used for high throughput screening or drug discovery.
• All donor consents include statements on the following:
• Testing the cells’ DNA (this is referred to as the cell’s genetic code or sequence) and making the information known to other researchers
• Changing some of the genetic code or sequence within these cells
• Using cells to test or select drugs to treat disease
• Transplanting cells or resulting products to humans or animals

  Distributing cells widely (nationally and internationally) for research, training or commercial medical product development

• Future research and uses unforeseen at this time
• Donors were screened and negative for HIV, HBV, and HCV. Donors under the age of 18 could opt out of HIV testing; all HCV-positive donors submitted skin punches, not peripheral blood, and were not screened for any infectious agents due to small volume of blood present in punches.
• Human induced pluripotent stem cells were established by non-integrating episomal reprogramming. Reprogramming and quality control were performed by Cellular Dynamics International.
