Skoltech professor Dmitri Pervouchine has co-authored a paper “A limited set of transcriptional programs define major cell types” that has been recently published in Genome Research journal. The researchers have revealed that most cells in the human body share a few broad transcriptional programs, which define five major cell types: epithelial, endothelial, mesenchymal, neural, and blood cells. Congratulations! Full text of the paper is available here.
