Repro-ThiPSC (i.e. SMC4 in reference 1) is a cocktail of four small molecules of specific signaling pathway inhibitors. It can be added directly in media to increase reprogramming efficiency of somatic cells to iPSCs, and to improve expansion and maintenance of hiPSCs under both with feeder cells and feeder-free conditions. It can be used in combination with any of the widely used reprogramming gene expression systems (e.g. retro/lenti-viral, episomal, mRNA, or proteins) to enhance the reprogramming somatic cells to iPS cells. This process is robust, efficient and can be easily scaled-up^1-3.
