Scientists Use RNA to Reprogram One Cell Type into Another

For the past decade, researchers have tried to tweak cells at the gene and nucleus level to reprogram their identity. Now, working on the idea that the signature of a cell is defined by molecules called messenger RNAs, which contain the chemical blueprint for how to make a protein, researchers have found another way to change one cell type into another.
