Reprogramming cell fate: a changing story
Direct reprogramming of adult, lineage-determined cells from one cell fate to another has long been an elusive goal in developmental biology. Recent studies have demonstrated that forced expression of lineage-specific transcription factors in various differentiated cell types can promote the adoption of different lineages. These seminal findings have the potential to revolutionize the field of ...
متن کاملChemical reprogramming of Caenorhabditis elegans germ cell fate
Small molecules can control cell fate in vivo and may allow directed induction of desired cell types, providing an attractive alternative to transplant-based approaches in regenerative medicine. We have chemically induced functional oocytes in Caenorhabditis elegans adults that otherwise produced only sperm. These findings suggest that chemical approaches to therapeutic cell reprogramming may b...
متن کاملCell Fate Plug and Play: Direct Reprogramming and Induced Pluripotency
Building on the discovery that MyoD expression reprograms fibroblasts into muscle, three papers (Vierbuchen et al., 2010; Ieda et al., 2010; Szabo et al., 2010) recently reported the reprogramming of fibroblasts into neurons, cardiomyocytes, and blood cell progenitors without first passing the cells through a pluripotent state. Here we discuss the advantages and challenges of harnessing this di...
متن کاملReprogramming cell fate to pluripotency: the decision-making signalling pathways.
Pluripotency can be defined as the ability of individual cells to initiate all of the lineages of the mature organism in response to signals from the environment. It has long been assumed that during development, pluripotency is progressively and irreversibly lost through a mechanism that requires strict coordination of the signalling pathways involved in cell proliferation, differentiation and...
متن کاملPerceiving signals, building networks, reprogramming germ cell fate.
Germ cell development is a step-wise process that ensures the progression of the life cycle due to their unique ability to transmit their genome from one generation to the next. In the mouse, the precursors of germ cells, the Primordial Germ Cells (PGCs), arise at the onset of gastrulation. Here we discuss how PGCs acquire their fate in the epiblast and outline their development until their arr...
