METHOD FOR CLONING PLURIPOTENT STEM CELLS

摘要

Embodied herein are methods of reprogramming somatic cells or tissue stem cells to a more multipotent state or even a pluripotent state, the methods do not involve gene transfer of master transcription factor genes/proteins. The methods are also useful for rapid and efficient cloning of induced pluripotent stem cells after gene transfer of master transcription factor genes/proteins.
