Chemical Conversion of Human Fibroblasts into Functional Schwann Cells

Chemical Conversion of Human Fibroblasts into Functional Schwann Cells

Direct transdifferentiation of somatic cells is a promising approach to obtain patient-specific cells for numerous applications. However, conversion across germ-layer borders often requires ectopic gene expression with unpredictable side effects. Here, we present a gene-free approach that allows eff...
