ABSTRACT

Figure 10. Stem cell gene therapy: combining ex vivo protocols with transient topical gene therapy (Poster Exhibition of June 6, 2002, ASGT 5th Annual Meeting, Boston: Bertolotti, 2002c). A schematic overview of the stem cell gene therapy breakthrough in which emerging autologous adult multipotent/pluripotent stem cells are displayed together with potential future autologous embryonic stem (ES)-like cells that might result from intensive cell reprogramming investigations (see Bertolotti, 2001). Adapted from Fig. 3 of Bertolotti, 2003a, and reprinted from Bertolotti, 2003c, with permission.
