And so we think the IPS technology is really quite superior.

所以我们认为IPS技术真的非常优越。

The result is known as an induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cell.

这一成果被称为诱导多功能干细胞（诱导能干细胞）。

Dr Goldstein is therefore using iPS cells to try to understand Alzheimer's disease.

因此, Dr Goldstein将用iPS来揭开阿尔茨海默症的病因。

He reprogrammed the cells collected into iPS cells, then nudged them to become nerve cells.

先将收集的体细胞诱导成iPS, 再用这些iPS细胞转化神经细胞。

And AstraZeneca is not the only company using iPS cells in new ways.

阿斯利康并不是唯一一家在新领域应用诱导能干细胞的公司。

The second is to use iPS cells to test drugs that have nothing to do with regenerative medicine.

二是利用诱导能干细胞测试与再生医学无关的药物。

Soon, the country's health ministry is expected to approve the first clinical trial of iPS cells, also for macular degeneration.

该国卫生部应该不久便会批准iPS细胞的第一例临床试验，同样也是治疗黄斑变性。

But ACT is not far behind. It hopes to begin a trial of platelets (blood-cell fragments involved in clotting) made from iPS cells.

然而ACT也并未脱离战队，该公司希望开始一项iPS细胞培养血小板（参与凝血过程的血液细胞碎片）的试验。

In just a few days Biden's approval rating dropped by seven percentage points to its lowest level in his presidency according to a Reuters IPS's poll.

根据路透社IPS的一项民意调查，在短短几天内，拜登的支持率下降了7个百分点，降至他担任总统以来的最低水平。

On January 3rd AstraZeneca, a British drug company, said it would buy human heart muscle, blood vessels, nerve cells and liver cells made from iPS cells by Cellular Dynamics, a company founded by James Thomson.

1月3日，英国阿斯利康制药表示将向杰姆·汤姆生创立的细胞动力公司购买用诱导能干细胞生产的心肌、血管、神经细胞和肝细胞。

In December GlaxoSmithKline, another British firm, described an experiment in which it assaulted neurons derived from iPS cells with beta-amyloid, a molecule linked to Alzheimer's disease, and then tested whether the beta-amyloid responded to hundreds of existing drugs.

该实验利用带β-淀粉（该分子与阿尔兹海默病有关）的诱导能干细胞分化的神经细胞来测试β-淀粉对成千上百种现有药物的反应。
