Kim Babos and colleagues fro the Ichida Lab developed a method to reprogram cells to switch their identity much more reliably than present capabilities allow. The technique uses enzymes to untangle reprogramming DNA, somewhat similar to conditioning tangled hair. The technique works with near-perfect efficiency — in mice and humans — for all types of…Continue Reading Ichida Lab publishes new paper in Cell Stem Cell
Kim Babos and colleagues in the Ichida Lab developed a method to reprogram cells to switch their identity much more reliably than present capabilities. The technique uses enzymes to untangle reprogramming DNA somewhat similar to how a coiffeur conditions tangled hair. The technique works with near-perfect efficiency – in animals and humans – for all…Continue Reading Ichida Lab publishes new paper in Cell Stem Cell
USC scientists have surmounted a big roadblock in regenerative medicine that has so far constrained the ability to use repurposed cells to treat diseases. The researchers figured out how to reprogram cells to switch their identity much more reliably than present capabilities. The technique uses enzymes to untangle reprogramming DNA somewhat similar to how a…Continue Reading USC scientists surmount big obstacle to reprogram cells
