Abstract
A major improvement in the generation of astrocytes directly from human fibroblasts will now facilitate the study of how aging impacts on astrocyte function and whether this contributes to neurodegenerative disorders.
期刊介绍:
Cellular Reprogramming is the premier journal dedicated to providing new insights on the etiology, development, and potential treatment of various diseases through reprogramming cellular mechanisms. The Journal delivers information on cutting-edge techniques and the latest high-quality research and discoveries that are transforming biomedical research.
Cellular Reprogramming coverage includes:
Somatic cell nuclear transfer and reprogramming in early embryos
Embryonic stem cells
Nuclear transfer stem cells (stem cells derived from nuclear transfer embryos)
Generation of induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells and/or potential for cell-based therapies
Epigenetics
Adult stem cells and pluripotency.
