A single short reprogramming early in life improves fitness and increases lifespan in old age

2021-05-14

Abstract excerpt

Forced and maintained expression of four transcription factors OCT4, SOX2, KLF4 and c-MYC (OSKM), can reprogram somatic cells into induced Pluripotent Stem Cells (iPSCs) and a limited OSKM induction is able to rejuvenate the cell physiology without changing the cell identity. We therefore sought to determine if a burst of OSKM might improve tissue fitness and delay age-related pathologies in a whole animal. For th...
