Researchers discovered a way to increase the efficiency of stem cell programming using research on a rare genetic disease, according to a study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
Induced pluripotent stem cells are created from skin cells and can be transformed into any type of cell in the body. Using existing techniques, according to the team of researchers, fewer than 1% of adult skin cells are reprogrammed into induced pluripotent stem cells.
