Somatic cells can be directly reprogrammed to alternative differentiated fates without first becoming stem/progenitor cells. Nevertheless, the initial need for viral-mediated gene delivery renders this strategy unsafe in humans. Here, we provide evidence that exposure of human skin fibroblasts a Radio Electric Asymmetric Conveyer (REAC), an innovative device delivering radio electric conveyed fields at radiofrequency 2.4 GHz, afforded remarkable commitment toward cardiac, neuronal, and...

Inflammatory response represents one of the main mechanisms healing and tissue function restoration. On other hand, chronic inflammation leads to excessive secretion pro-inflammatory cytokines involved in onset several diseases. Oxidative stress condition may contribute worsening inflammatory state fall, increasing reactive oxygen species (ROS) production release. Polyphenols can counteract oxidative stress, modulating release toxic molecules interacting with physiological defenses, such as...
