تحويل جينية كطريقة آمنة وبسيطة للحصول على خلايا إفراز الأنسولين من الخلايا الليفية الجلد الكبار

Here, a new method that allows the conversion of adult skin fibroblasts into insulin-secreting cells is presented. This technique is based on epigenetic conversion, does not involve the use of retroviral vectors nor the acquisition of a stable pluripotent state. It is therefore highly promising for translational medicine applications.
