| The ability to dedifferentiate stem cells would be incredibly valuable just for leukemia treatment. |
|
| A third approach is to use one's own specialized cells and dedifferentiate them. |
|
| By manipulating niche signals, they could make the stem cells differentiate, then dedifferentiate again. |
|
| In zebra fish the structure of the muscle fiber disintegrates as the cells dedifferentiate. |
|
| They dedifferentiate initially in culture, but later reexpress stable characteristics of mature chondrocytes. |
|
| The search for compounds to differentiate and dedifferentiate stem cells is accelerating due to advances in biotechnology for growing and screening cells. |
|
| Cells that had been stimulated to dedifferentiate were then used to produce millions of cardiac stem cells, which were later reinfused directly into the heart of the patient through a catheter in a coronary artery. |
|
| Others claim that there are no such reserve cells and that the blastema develops from formerly specialized cells near the wound that dedifferentiate to give rise to the blastema cells. |
|
| In human hearts, too, Dr. Murry said, the muscle cells dedifferentiate after injury and double up their DNA, a necessary precursor to cell division. |
|
| Wounding the plant prompts adjacent cells to dedifferentiate, reverting to their stem cell state, in order to heal the wound. |
|
| Second, mesenchymal disorganization occurs, in which the mesenchymal cells found below the wound epithelium dedifferentiate and migrate toward the amputation plate. |
