Cell reprogramming is the process of reverting mature,specialized cells into induced pluripotent stem cells.Reprogramming also refers to the erasure and re-establish-ment of epigenetic markers during the development of mammalian germ cells,such as DNA methylation [1].At present,reprogramming mainly refers to two processes:the process of reverting differentiated cells to a pluripotent state,and the process of transforming one type of differentiated cell into another [2].Reprogramming mainly includes induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells,direct trans-differentiation,and indirect lineage conversion.
