80-year-old donor's blood cells reprogrammed to molecular age under 20
What happened
On October 13 a research report appeared on the Hacker News front page: researchers reprogrammed blood cells from an 80-year-old donor into stem cells, and the resulting cells have a molecular age under 20. The report points to results published on onlinelibrary.wiley.com, where 80 refers to the donor's age and under 20 to the molecular age of the reprogrammed cells. Only this summary of the result is available so far; the original page sits behind a security check, so the reprogramming method and study data could not be retrieved, and the report gives no further experimental detail.
