Simple recipe turns human skin cells into embryonic stem cell-like cells
Date: 22.11.2007
A simple recipe—including just four ingredients—can transform adult human skin cells into cells that resemble **embryonic stem cells**, researchers report in an immediate early publication of the journal Cell, a publication of Cell Press. The converted cells have many of the physical, growth and genetic features typically found in embryonic stem cells and can differentiate to produce other tissue types, including neurons and heart tissue, according to the researchers.
