  If this turns out to be a real, reproducible development, isn't it the holy grail of tissue engineering?  I'd like to hear the thoughts of our resident bio-nuts.

    It sounds really major.
    What also got my attention some time back was the discovery that stem cells injected into (IIRC) heart muscle became specialised heart muscle - presumably with the clock reset.

    If this does turn out to be correct it might be interesting to see what happens to (say) old mice when they are treated.
