Comparison of Human Induced Pluripotent and Embryonic Stem Cells: Fraternal or Identical Twins?
1 Apr 2011
Abstract excerpt
Human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) have been hailed as an effective replacement for human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) and a prime candidate cell source for regenerative medicine aims. Both hESCs and hiPSCs share the important properties of self-renewal and pluripotency; that is, they are theoretically capable of generating unlimited amounts of any differentiated cell in the human body. However,...
