Abstract excerpt
Recent advances have demonstrated the power of small molecules in promoting cellular reprogramming. Yet, the full potential of such chemicals in cell fate manipulation and the underlying mechanisms require further characterization. Through functional screening assays, we find that mouse embryonic fibroblast cells can be induced to trans-differentiate into a wide range of somatic lineages simultaneously by...
