TL;DR

Researchers have developed a new method for delivering genetic information into stem cells, which are notoriously difficult to penetrate. The discovery will make it easier to direct and enhance the processes involved in regenerative medicine. The team coated nanoparticles in a type of polymer, which helped them to get into the stem cells more efficiently. The coated nanoparticles avoided getting trapped in vesicles, unlike the uncoated ones. The discovery will help to make the delivery of genetic information to stem cells more efficient so that it is easier to control which cells they become.
