iPSCs: A Minireview from Bench to Bed, including Organoids and the CRISPR System by Andrés Javier Orqueda, Carla Alejandra Giménez, Federico Pereyra-Bonnet

“…When Dolly the sheep was born, the first probe into an adult mammalian genome traveling back in time and generating a whole new animal appeared. Ten years later, the reprogramming process became a defined method of producing induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) through the overexpression of four transcription factors. iPSCs are capable of originating virtually all types of cells and tissues, including a whole new animal. …”
