Researchers report Cell Rejuvenation'

Taiwan - (CNA) - Scientists at a Taiwan university have achieved a breakthrough in cell rejuvenation by injecting four genes into a mature cell, which resets the cell's bio-clock to a state similar to fertilization, the team leader reported Thursday.
The research team from National Central University-Cathay General Hospital has managed to induce fibroblast cells to split into pluripotent stem cells, which are similar to embryonic cells, said Professor Akon Higuchi of the university's Department of Chemical and Materials Engineering.
