Transfection of Peripheral Blood Monocytes with SOX2 Enhances Multipotency, Proliferation, and Redifferentiation into Neohepatocytes and Insulin-Producing Cells

Following a several-day incubation in medium containing IL-3 and M-CSF to generate a more plastic intermediate “reprogrammed multipotent cells of monocytic origin (RMCMO),” peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) can be efficiently converted to hepatocyte-like cells (neohepatocytes) and insulin-p...
