Nuclear remodeling during cell fate transitions.

Totipotent stem cells, the earliest cells in embryonic development, can differentiate into complete embryos and extra-embryonic tissues, making them essential for understanding both development and regenerative medicine. This review examines recent advances in the dynamic remodeling of nuclear structures during the transition between totipotency and pluripotency, as well as other cell fate transition processes. Additionally, we highlight innovative experimental and computational methods that elucidate the relationship between nuclear architecture and cell fate decisions. By integrating these insights, we aim to enhance our understanding of how nuclear remodeling influences totipotency and other cell fate transitions, paving the way for future research in this critical field.
