A micrograph of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs)
Description:
Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) derived from skin cells. The regions shown in green are proteins found in iPSCs but not found in skin cells. The red dots show the inactivated X chromosome in each cell. These cells can develop into a variety of possible cell types. See Lecture Summary 3 for more information on iPSCs.
