Induced Pluriopotent Stem Cells (iPSCs) are a type of pluripotent stem cells that can be derived directly from adult somatic cells . The derived iPSCs can propagate indefinitely, as well as give rise to other cell types in the body. iPS cells, thus, hold great promise in the field of regenerative medicine by representing a single source of cells that could be used to replace those damaged/diseased cells.诱导多能干细胞(iPSCs)是一种可直接从成体细胞中获得的多能干细胞。诱导多能干细胞可以无限繁殖，也可以在体内产生其他类型的细胞。因此，iPS细胞在再生医学领域前景广阔，因为它代表了一种单一的细胞来源，可以用来替代那些受损/患病的细胞。
