Acquisition of pluripotency through continued environmental influence on OCT4-induced plastic human fibroblasts

The combination of OCT4 expression and short-term exposure to reprogramming media induces a state of transcriptional plasticity in human fibroblasts, capable of responding to changes in the extracellular environment that facilitate direct cell fate conversion toward lineage specific progenitors. Her...
