Gene may mean adult cells can be reprogrammed
A gene named after the mythical Celtic land of the ever young could help explain how to reprogram adult cells into embryonic stem cells to treat diseases, researchers said on Wednesday.
[...]
"The effect of Nanog is remarkable. All the hybrid cells became fully converted to embryonic stem cells," said Jose Silva of the University of Edinburgh, Scotland, who reported the findings in the journal Nature.
Stem cells are master cells in the body. Scientists believe they could act as a type of human repair system to provide new therapies for illnesses ranging from diabetes to Parkinson's.

Gee, I wonder if such advanced therapies will be made available to any of Amerikkka's 46 million (conservative estimate) uninsured? I bet not, even though you can bet a large amount of public money has been used to fund the research. But that's fascism for ya.
Hitler would be so proud of our boys in Washington, camps and all. .
