Abstract
The term "lineage reprogramming" is typically used to describe the conversion of one differentiated somatic cell type into another without transit through a pluripotent intermediate. Two recent reports in Nature demonstrate that such a conversion can be achieved in the heart in situ, and suggest a novel, regenerative approach for the development of cardiac therapeutics.Entities:
