Once got chance to transplant on her, can get her to luv (or hate) u 4ever ?
Not cheeky to say,
unless cell mutation danger by using retrovirus (cancer-causing...c-Myc) 2 deliver,
4 genes can make
skin cell become
stem cells
(bldg blks of tissue organ and tissue cells, with person's specific genetic code)
can turn in2
abt 220 diff cell types
More promising than cloning embryos by transfering cell nucleus into them, in the labs, easily harvestible stem-cells by injecting proteins ...
Experiments hv bn done, taking skin cells from diabetics 2 see how turn in2 pancreatic ones, w/o ethical issues using human egg, embryos.
B4, was harvested from cadevers
In
1 10cm
petri-dish, if can produce
induced
(pori potent)
(pluripotent)
stem cells
(4 genes 2 derive from foetal lung, noe-natal skin & from healthy human)
(IPS which can turn in2 all except placenta)
(1 from 5000)
