Penn Study Decodes Molecular Mechanisms Underlying Stem Cell Reprogramming

Thursday, November 15, 2012 - 12:31 in Health & Medicine

Thanks to some careful detective work, scientist better understand just how iPS cells form - and why the Yamanaka process is inefficient, an important step to work out for regenerative medicine. The findings uncover cellular impediments to iPS cell development that, if overcome, could dramatically improve the efficiency and speed of iPS cell generation.
