The reluctant blank slate: reprogramming elephant cells
Asian elephant cells can be reprogrammed to pluripotency, but only by navigating unusually stringent tumor-suppressive surveillance associated with expanded TP53 and LIF retrogene architecture. The work establishes a practical platform for conservation and disease modeling and sharpens a broader question: where exactly does tumor suppression end and the barrier to cellular renewal begin?
