'''Induced pluripotent stem cells''' are [[stem cells]] that are derived from [[somatic cells]] by [[transfection]] with a virus. The virus carries jeans that are capable of causing the target sell to gain the ability to differentiate into any type of cell in the body and to indefinitely propagate itself.
