Fair enough, but these are good questions and would be
of interest to others on list as well. Why not repost there?

I wanted to know a bit more about:
a) mature stem cells (as opposed to fetal stem cells)
b) reverse differentiation (differentied cells becoming
undifferentiated, apparently linked to mature stem cells).
Specifically, I was curious if anyone has established
a normal proportion for either mature stem cells, or the equivalent of
a basal metabolic rate (base rate) for reverse differentiation... and
whether or not they linked that to resistence to onslaught of aging...
