Effect on Multipotency and Phenotypic Transition of Unrestricted Somatic Stem Cells from Human Umbilical Cord Blood after Treatment with Epigenetic Agents

The epigenetic mechanism of DNA methylation is of central importance for cellular differentiation processes. Unrestricted somatic stem cells (USSCs) from human umbilical cord blood, which have a broad differentiation spectrum, reside in an uncommitted epigenetic state with partial methylation of the...
