Researchers from the Harvard Stem Cell Institute (HSCI) and Mass. General Hospital (MGH) are one step closer to reprogramming adult stem cells and making them capable of creating tissues for all parts of the body without the use of viruses or cancer-causing genes. Harvard Medical School professor Konrad A. Hochedlinger recently discovered how long adult mouse stem cells need to be exposed to reprogramming factors before they convert to a pluripotent, embryonic-like state, at which point they can be potentially used for medical treatments. According to Hochedlinger, his lab set out to unveil the mysteries of the reprogramming...
