Thus , reprogramming leads to the restoration of embryonic telomere length , and hence increases the potential number of cell divisions otherwise limited by the Hayflick limit .
It was found that reprogramming leads to telomere lengthening and subsequent shortening after their differentiation back into fibroblast - like derivatives .
