Bromodeoxyuridine promotes full-chemical induction of mouse pluripotent stem cells
7 Aug 2015
Abstract excerpt
Direct reprogramming of somatic cells into induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) with transcription factors (e.g., Oct4 (O), Sox2 (S), Klf4 (K), and c-Myc (M)) greatly expands our understanding of cell fate control. iPSCs resemble embryonic stem cells (ESCs) but without immune rejection and ethic issues, and are therefore considered as a promising source for cell replacement therapy. Patient-derived iPSCs can...
