Types of human somatic cells which are relatively more accessible for reprogramming include keratinocytes, dermal fibroblasts, adipocytes and peripheral blood cells. Current reprogramming methods include the use of retroviruses, lentiviruses, plasmids, adenoviruses, Sendai viruses, transposons, protein, modified RNA and miRNA.
