Dynamical systems theory of cellular reprogramming

In cellular reprogramming, almost all epigenetic memories of differentiated cells are erased by the overexpression of a few genes, resulting in regaining pluripotency, the Tableware Accessories potential for differentiation.Considering the interplay between oscillatory gene expression and slower epigenetic modifications, such reprogramming is perce
