Cellular Reprogramming Rejuvenates Old Mice and Boosts Lifespans 30%

Using a process designed to “reprogram” normal adult cells into pluripotent stem cells researchers have managed to boost the life spans of mice by up to 30% and rejuvenate some of their tissues.

A change of heart: researchers reprogram brain cells to become heart cells

Researchers are the first to demonstrate the direct conversion of a non-heart cell type into a heart cell by RNA transfer.
