Epigenetic Inheritance of Acquired Traits via Stem Cells Dedifferentiation/Differentiation or Transdifferentiation Cycles

The authors hypothesize existence of pluripotent adult stem cells that can serve as collectors and carriers of new epigenetic traits by entering different developmentally active organ/tissue compartments through blood circulation and acquiring new epigenetic marks though cycles of differentiation/dedifferentiation or transdifferentiation.
