A team has identified an experimental molecule capable of "reprogramming" the brain's immune cells to restore part of their ...

A team led by researchers has discovered that a group of cells located in the skin and other areas of the body, called neural crest stem cells, are the source of reprogrammed neurons found by other ...

Cellular reprogramming, when the identity and function of a cell changes, results in the cell acquiring embryonic stem cell pluripotency. This process requires gene expression patterns changes, ...

When a neuron ages, it loses synaptic connections with other neurons, it is less able to transmit nerve impulses, and its metabolism is also altered. This process of neuronal ageing — inevitable with ...

A mature cell of one type can be turned into a mature cell of another type without the cell having to pass through an earlier stage of development. This is called direct reprogramming, a reliable but ...
