ROS sets the stage for macrophage differentiation.

abstract：:The term "lineage reprogramming" is typically used to describe the conversion of one differentiated somatic cell type into another without transit through a pluripotent intermediate. Two recent reports in Nature demonstrate that such a conversion can be achieved in the heart in situ, and suggest a novel, regenerative ...

abstract：:The first cell fate choice in the mammalian embryo, the segregation of the inner cell mass (ICM) and trophectoderm (TE), is regulated by the mutually antagonistic effects of the transcription factors, Oct4 and Cdx2, while the pluripotency factor, Nanog, is essential to specify the epiblast. We have analyzed the promot...
