Abstract: Abstract: Cell reprogramming, especially the generation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) has opened a new horizon in the treatment of degenerative illnesses. Studies on the generation and mechanisms of iPSC have been the hot-spot and breathtaking progresses, which have been made since the first report on the iPSC generation. In the present paper we review the role and molecular mechanism of transcription factors, epigenetic regulation and cell signaling in cell reprogramming.
Key words: cell reprogramming; induced pluripotent stem cell; transcription factor; epigenetics; cell signaling
