Deisseroth knew that if only the misbehaving neurons could be prodded into life with cell-specific technology, leaving the rest of the brain untouched, it would be a far better treatment for the disease.

Scientists can mark a gene with a “promoter”—a cell-specific piece of DNA that controls whether a given type of cell uses a gene.

In their studies in mice, the researchers showed that while forced activation of hypothalamic IKKβ/NF-κB interrupts central insulin/leptin signaling and actions, site - or cell-specific suppression of IKKβ either broadly across the brain or locally within the hypothalamus actually protects against obesity and glucose intolerance.

Human iPS cells were similar to human embryonic stem ES cells in morphology, proliferation, surface antigens, gene expression, epigenetic status of pluripotent cell-specific genes, and telomerase activity.

And then on top of that, of course, you have this cell-specific program with these master-regulator genes that are making a blood cell different from an eye cell different from a skin cell.

And in a certain case by Deepak Srivastava, where he could take skin cells and put them into a - make them into a heart, he actually took the master regulators of the heart cells themselves, these cell-specific regulators that tell a gene to turn on in a heart cell, and that turned these cells into a beating tissue.
