Compounds for Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells

Reprogramming of cells refers to the regression of a specialized cell to a simpler state, resulting in cells with stem-like properties, or the direct transformation of one specialized cell type into another, which is also known as transdifferentiation. The process of cells regressing to a stem cell-like state occurs naturally, mostly for repair and regeneration in aged or damaged tissues, being also known as dedifferentiation. Reprogramming can be artificially induced using a combination of ...
