Abstract
Stem cells have traditionally been characterized as either embryonic (pluripotent) or organ-specific. Recent work suggests that the latter can "transdifferentiate" into other cell types, carrying significant implications for possible clinical use of these cells. Here the authors critically examine the existing data, and suggest standards for the evaluation of these and future studies.
