A stably self-renewing adult blood-derived induced neural stem cell exhibiting patternability and epigenetic rejuvenation

Induced neurons, but not induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived neurons, preserve age-related traits. Here, the authors demonstrate that blood-derived induced neural stem cells (iNSCs), despite lacking a pluripotency transit, lose age-related signatures.
