Reprogramming involves exposing cells to the Yamanaka factors, a set of transcription factors that are involved in the conversion of adult cells into embryonic stem cells in the earliest stages of embryogenesis. In addition to converting an adult somatic cell into a pluripotent stem cell, Yamaka factor expression also rejuvenates epigenetic control over nuclear DNA structure and gene expression and <a href="htt…
