E. Using induced stem cell techniques akin to those used for research purposes in mice that trigger regeneration of repaired cells,
(A) Based on is not the right idiom to refer/modify to the "scientists"
(B) Same reason as in A
(C) CORRECT. Concise and properly modifies "Scientists".
(D) First part of the modifier is correct, but "which triggers regeneration of repaired cells" refers to mice, the nearest noun. That changes the meaning.
(E) Same reason as D, just that 'which' is replaced with 'that'.

I think this is a poor-quality question and I agree with explanation. The words used in the answers are not consistent. In the correct response C, the word "trigger" is not included, whereas it is in the other answers.
The correct answer should use trigger as the main verb. The response would be a variation on C, reading something like "Using induced stem cell techniques akin to those used for research purposes in mice to trigger regeneration of repaired cells," or "to trigger cell repair regeneration"
