...technique allows scientists to manipulate a patient’s cells genetically—typically skin cells or blood cells—and reprogram them into a pluripotent state. Like embryonic stem cells, these iPS cells are then capable of morphing into any type of body tissue...
...Daley, who is also a professor at Harvard Medical School, said he and his colleagues created 20 stable iPS cell lines from patients with genetic diseases including Parkinson’s, Huntington’s, Down Syndrome, juvenile-onset Type I diabetes, and two types of muscular dystrophy...
