Direct conversion of fibroblasts to functional neurons by defined factors
Open accessAbstract
Cellular differentiation and lineage commitment are considered to be robust and irreversible processes during development. Recent work has shown that mouse and human fibroblasts can be reprogrammed to a pluripotent state with a combination of four transcription factors. This raised the question of whether transcription factors could directly induce other defined somatic cell fates, and not only an undifferentiated state. We hypothesized that combinatorial expression of neural-lineage-specific transcription factors could directly convert fibroblasts into neurons. Starting from a pool of nineteen candidate genes, we identified a combination of only three factors, Ascl1, Brn2 (also called Pou3f2) and Myt1l, that suffice to rapidly and efficiently convert mouse embryonic and postnatal fibroblasts into functional neurons in vitro. These induced neuronal (iN) cells express multiple neuron-specific proteins, generate action potentials and form functional synapses. Generation of iN cells from non-neural lineages could have important implications for studies of neural development, neurological disease modelling and regenerative medicine.

“Viral screens using focused overexpression libraries can identify putative reprogramming factors, for example, by identifying a defined set of transcription factors that are selectively required to induce pluripotent stem cells (2–4,7) or trans-differentiate from mature somatic cell into another mature somatic cell (1,8–11).”

Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“Despite the power of viral technologies, pooled screens for cell reprogramming have generally adopted a one-by-one elimination approach or testing for exhaustive combinations and interrogating phenotypes in cell culture from transgenic mice (1,3,10) and/or aberrantly cloned cell lines (12).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
