Abstract

Two manuscripts published recently in Cell Stem Cell (Lluis et al., 2008 [this issue]; Marson et al., 2008) show that Wnt-beta-catenin signaling stimulates nuclear reprogramming. These two studies, using distinct reprogramming methods, offer insights into the mechanisms underlying acquisition and maintenance of pluripotency.
