Myths About iPSCs: Top Misconceptions Debunked by Science

Blogs

Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are among the most transformative innovations in modern regenerative medicine. The concept itself seems almost futuristic: by taking a small sample of somatic cells, such as skin fibroblasts, and reprogramming them back into a pluripotent state. These reprogrammed cells can give rise to diverse cell types, opening new possibilities for personalized medicine, disease modelling, and tissue regeneration.

Epigenetic Modifications: Their Role in iPSC Reprogramming and Differentiation

Blogs

Classic epigenetic modifications include DNA methylation and histone modifications as well as more broadly chromatin accessibility and non-coding RNAs. Epigenetic mechanisms enable heritable changes in gene expression that occur without altering the underlying DNA sequence. The various epigenetic layers act to control DNA accessibility and chromatin structure, which defines transcription factor binding and downstream gene…
