Deng Hongkui's team of Peking University uses chemical reprogramming to completely reverse the "developmental clock" of human cells. | Global scientific news
Cell biology? Chemical reprogramming reverses the "developmental clock" of human cells Cell reprogramming can transform one cell into another type of cell, such as using oocyte cytoplasm or transcription factors, to reprogram somatic cells into pluripotent stem cells. In addition, exposure to an environment containing some small molecules (chemical stimulation) can also change the fate of cells, but it is more difficult to achieve in human cells. In a new study published in Nature, a team led by Deng Hongkui, a professor at Peking University, induced human cells into an intermediate state of plasticity, realizing the chemical reprogramming of human body cells.

Study finds that sharks use Earth's magnetic field to guide them like a map
Sea turtles are known to rely on magnetic signals to find their way across thousands of miles to the beaches where they hatch. Now, in the May 6 issue of Current Biology, researchers report some of the earliest conclusive evidence that sharks also rely on magnetic fields for long-distance trans-oceanic voyages.

Don't look for extraterrestrial civilization, there is one within the Earth, scientists: in front of it human is a higher civilization
In the wilderness of the northeastern region of Brazil, there is a large colony of huge white ant nests, presumed to have existed 3,000 to 800 years ago and still in use and under construction until now. Its total area is about 228,000 square kilometers, and the mounds of earth visible on the surface exceed 200 million, which can even be photographed in outer space. By no coincidence, there is a giant red ant 1 on the seashore of Hokkaido The colony contains more than 300 million worker ants and 1.08 million queens, which live in 45,000 interconnected crypts that spread over an area of 27,000 square kilometers.
