Abstract excerpt
The recent fascinating breakthrough in the area of stem cell research is the successful production of cloned animals via nuclear transplantation of somatic nucleus by intrinsic trans-acting factors of oocytes and trans-differentiation of somatic stem cells from adult organs induced by extrinsic growth factors. During the process of nuclear reprogramming, epigenetic modification of the somatic nuclei must be...
