Deskripsi
Obtaining T cells by reprogramming is one of the major goals in regenerative medicine. Here, we describe a protocol for generating functional T cells from Hoxb5-expressing pro/pre-B cells in vivo. This protocol includes the construction of Hoxb5 recombinant plasmids, retroviral packaging, isolation and viral transduction of pro/pre-B cells, cell transplantation, and phenotypic analysis of induced T cells. The procedure is reproducible and straightforward, providing an approach for generating induced T cells for translational research. Keywords: Hoxb5, Retrovirus, Pro/pre-B cells, T cells
