Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells from Basic Research to Potential Clinical Applications in Cancer
The human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) are derived from a direct reprogramming of human somatic cells to a pluripotent stage through ectopic expression of specific transcription factors. These cells have two important properties, which are the self-renewal capacity and the ability to diff...
