Functional Neurons from T-cells without Induced Pluripotency
August 7, 2018 | Terry Sharrer
From Stanford University comes this news: “This new study demonstrates a breakthrough technique that can produce as many as 50,000 neurons from as little as 1 milliliter of blood, regardless of whether the sample is fresh or had been previously frozen. By adding just four proteins, in one simple step, the team was able to transform human T cells into functional neurons. “The transformation process took only three weeks. MORE
