MEFs, murine embryonic fibroblasts. ND, not determined.

*

Secondary cells. Differentiated cells derived from iPS cells carrying the four viral transgenes under the control of a doxycycline-inducible promoter.

Note that mature B cells required ectopic expression of Cebpα in addition to the four reprogramming factors to produce iPS cells.
