Abstract
The present invention provides 2,6-disubstituted purine compounds, compositions and methods for dedifferentiating lineage committed mammalian cells into stem cells. The present invention also provides methods of inducing dedifferentiation of lineage committed mammalian cells into stem cells, which can be further differentiated into various lineage committed cells. Methods of identifying additional 2,6-disubstituted purine compounds useful for inducing dedifferentiation of lineage committed cells into stem cells are also provided.
